FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Minnesota Author Cary J Griffith Offers One Free Book at Every Arrowhead Library System Tour Stop
Mountain Iron, MN, November 15, 2024 ─
December’s author tour of the Arrowhead Library System brings more than just a free program! Author Cary J Griffith (Minnesota Book Award and Midwest Book Award winner) wants to make the most of his visit to the northland by giving one free book to one attendee for every free library program he attends!
Cary J Griffith is the author of bestselling nonfiction books Gunflint Falling: Blowdown in the Boundary Waters, Gunflint Burning: Fire in the Boundary Waters, and Lost in the Wild. His nonfiction titles share true stories of survival and courage in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Cary J Griffith’s library tour centers around his book Gunflint Falling, and attendees can learn more about the events of July 4, 1999 that led to the creation of his book. Griffith has also written a series of Mystery books, and his latest Sam Rivers Mystery Dead Catch (set on Lake Vermilion) will also be discussed during his free library programs. This program tour, sponsored by Arrowhead Library System, was funded in part or in whole with money from Minnesota's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund (ACHF).
How can you earn a free book written by Cary J Griffith? Simply attend one of his upcoming public library events! During Griffith’s presentation he will provide attendees with the answer to three (very easy) true/false questions. Whoever answers all three questions correctly is in the running to win a free, signed copy of a Griffith-authored book. He will also have copies of all his books for sale, in case anyone is interested. This free program is 1 hour long and is geared towards junior high students (ages 10+) and adults.
