*Field Trip* This discussion will take place at Casa Mexico. Meet to discuss a great book the first Wednesday of each month. The January selection is The Radium Girls by Kate Moore. As WWI raged, hundreds of young women toiled away at the radium-dial factories, assured by their bosses that the luminous material was safe. With such a coveted job, these girls were considered lucky—until they began to fall mysteriously ill. As the fatal radium poison took hold, they found themselves embroiled in a groundbreaking battle for workers’ rights.
Feb. 7 selection: Excavations by Kate Myers.
