Portsmouth AAUW book group discussed THE FROZEN RIVER by Ariel Lawson. Thank you, Sherry, for hosting (delicious blueberry cake) and facilitating our lively discussion. This book, set in late 1700s-early 1800s, touches on many topics that are still relevant to current times. This novel is a fictional account of Martha Ballard who was a real life midwife in Maine and great-aunt of Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross.

Portsmouth AAUW members and guests enjoyed a wonderful social gathering today at the Chrysler Museum of Art. Our own Sherry Warren, also Chrysler docent, led our interesting and entertaining tour of the current Constellations exhibit. We celebrated our 50 year (and counting) member and leader, Kathy Batkin. What a delightful way to wrap up the summer and begin thinking about our upcoming year of supporting the mission of AAUW.

Thank you, Denise, for hosting Portsmouth AAUW book group today and for reviewing WHO IS GOVERNMENT? THE UNTOLD STORY OF PUBLIC SERVICE by Michael Lewis. As always we enjoyed a thoughtful, lively discussion. This book beautifully illustrates the dedication, professionalism, and commitment typical of federal employees throughout our nation. Readers may be surprised by the range of services and research being done.
