Join us for a book lunch at Phinney Books, featuring a discussion with Thomas Ricks about his new book, Churchill & Orwell: The Fight for Freedom, a parallel biography of two of the twentieth century's iconic figures, one on the right and one on the left, and how they helped protect democracy from the threat of tyranny. Ricks is the bestselling author of the era-defining books on the Iraq War, Fiasco and The Gamble, as well as Making the Corps and The Generals. He's an adviser at the New America Foundation and a former correspondent for the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal.

Space is limited; you can register here. Included in the $38 price are a copy of Churchill & Orwell and lunch (a selection of sandwiches and sides from the deli at Ken's Market).
