BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP Thursday, March 23 4 PM Owners’ Lounge THE GIRLS OF ATOMIC CITY By D ENISE K IEMAN

This New York Times bestseller is the incredible true story of the top-secret World War II town of Oak Ridge, Tennessee and the young women brought there unknowingly to help build the atomic bomb. They were recruited from many small towns with the promise of solid wages and war-ending efforts.

Very few knew what they were actually doing there. “Drawing from the voices and experiences of the women who lived and worked in Oak Ridge, The Girls of Atomic City rescues a remarkable forgotten chapter of WWII from obscurity” K AREN A BBOTT , author of Sin in the Second City , calls it ‘the best kind of nonfiction: marvelously reported, fluidly written…as meticulous and brilliant as it is compulsively readable.” For information contact: J EAN D IETRICH 760 992-8225 Next Meeting TBA
