    HISTORIC NEWTON November BOOK CLUB
    The next selection of Historic Newton's book club is Mrs. Adams in Winter by Michael O'Brien. The book tells the riveting story of Louisa Adams, wife of John Quincy Adams, and her harrowing 40 day journey from St. Petersburg to Paris in the winter of 1815. Traveling nearly alone, in the footsteps of Napoleon's retreating army, she and her son crossed war-torn Europe to meet her husband in Paris. O’Brien deals deftly with geographic and historical details and offers a peek into the family relationships of this prominent family. The book club is free and new members are always welcome.
