The Ivy Bookshop is a Baltimore institution; "Baltimore's Best Bookstore" (according to Baltimore Magazine), and one of the country's great, enduring, independents. I'm delighted that the Ivy's new owners, Ed and Ann Berlin - longtime customers of Chartwell Booksellers - have invited me to visit the Ivy and speak about Churchill Style.
FRIDAY evening, MARCH 1, from 7:00-8:30 pm.

I will be speaking at the The Morgan Library this coming Wednesday, June 27 on the subject of CHURCHILL STYLE, in conjunction with the Morgan's current exhibition CHURCHILL: THE POWER OF WORDS. Unfortunately, it is a private affair, reserved entirely for Morgan benefactors and board members.
I did want to make mention of it here, nevertheless.
