Tuesday, September 29, 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.  Women of the West by Cathy Luchetti. A myth-shattering look at the women who helped to settle the West, told through their own words and illustrated with 150 period photographs. This is American history, not as it was romanticized, but as it was lived. “An elegant connective narrative and 150 remarkable photographs put ....the [nineteenth] century's history in more realistic perspective.” -- Los Angeles Times
