| The Women by Kristin Hannah
When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances Frankie McGrath hears these unexpected words, it is a revelation. Raised on idyllic Coronado Island and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing, being a good girl. But in 1965 the world is changing, and she suddenly imagines a different choice for her life. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she impulsively joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path. As green and inexperienced as the men sent to Vietnam to fight, Frankie is overwhelmed by the chaos and destruction of war, as well as the unexpected trauma of coming home to a changed and politically divided America.--

History After Hours: Complex History Ford and the River Rouge! with Andrew Kercher Date: Friday, April 10, 2026 Time: 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM Presenter: Andrew Kercher Location: Multi Purpose Program Room Complex History Ford and the River Rouge! The Rouge was synonymous with Industry. The crown jewel in Henry Ford and Ford Motor’s concept of vertical integration, raw materials could flow into one end of the complex, while finished cars would drive out the other in a seemingly magical accomplishment of industrial might. This came at a cost, however, both on the tens of thousands of works, as well as the very land where the factory sat.
