Sides Kicks Off Fall “Authors Live” Series

rsz_978-0-385-53537-3Hampton Sides will speak about his book, “In the Kingdom of Ice: The Grand and Terrible Polar Voyage of the USS Jeannette” on Aug. 19 as part of HPUMC’s “Authors Live” series.

Apparently, the North Pole was an object of obsession in the 19th century. Sides chronicles a group of men who set off to find it.

As always, the free event takes place at the church at 7 p.m. But if you’d like to pay $30 — which includes a copy of the book — and attend a reception at 6 p.m., make your reservations here or call (214) 523-2240.

You can buy a book and get it signed afterward.
