The second event in our 3-part “Appreciating Our Natural Environment” series is coming up!
The Book of Trails was first published in 1982 and last printed in 2005. An inherently multidisciplinary project, it has brought together writers, naturalists, mapmakers, historians, and town officials. For trustee Cole Tucker-Walton, preparing the first print edition in 20 years has been an opportunity to revisit the collaborations that shaped our access to forests, clean water, and outdoor recreation in Redding. Join us on April 14th to hear about some of the early characters in local conservation, look at the design of influential maps and nature studies, and get inspired for your own explorations in Redding’s big outdoors!
Tuesday, April 14th, 7:00-8:00pm. Register today at https://marktwainlibrary.org/events/mapping-reddings-outdoors-the-book-of-trails-updated-in-person/
