Speaking about American Character, Portsmouth, NH, Mar. 15

My fifth book, American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good, goes on sale March 15th and I'll be in a store that evening, presenting the book for the first time.

The world premier, as it were, is at River Run Bookstore, the flagship independent in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, at 6:30 pm. Lots of details are here at their website. If you live in southernmost Maine or seacoast New Hampshire -- or if you live over in Manchester and really enjoyed my recent Politico piece on the transformation of the Amoskeag Millyard -- do come on by. (They moved to 142 Fleet Street a few years back.)

The book tour continues in Newburyport, Falmouth, Boston and Beverly, Massachusetts; Portland, Maine; Greenwich, Connecticut, and Washington, DC.
