Free Nature Talk at Allendale Library

The Lee Memorial Library is sponsoring a free talk by nature writer Robert Romano on Tues., April 26, from 7 to 8 p.m.

His latest book is “River Flowers,” a collection of stories and tall tales about the men and women who have lived in the semi-wilderness of western Maine. It celebrates the rich sporting tradition of the area dating back to the 1800s.

Mr. Romano will present a program featuring almost 100 photographs showcasing the wildlife, flora, and wild terrain of this region of fast-running streams and sunlit lakes; a place that has remained untamed, much as it was when the Abenaki tribes paddles their birchbark canoes down from Canada.

Copies of Mr. Romano’s latest book, "River Flowers" ($25), as well as his most recent novel, "River King" ($23), will be available for purchase and signing.

The talk is free and open to Allendale residents. The library is located at 500 W. Crescent Ave.
