Featured Program
  
In partnership with the 14th Utah Humanities Book Festival, Park City Library invites you to a free author program on Friday, October 21st. The program will feature William M. Adler, author of The Man Who Never Died: The Life, Times, and Legacy of Joe Hill, American Labor Icon. Joe Hill, a legendary American songwriter and labor hero, was convicted of murder in Utah in 1914 and sentenced to death by firing squad. Many believed Hill was innocent, and in this biography Adler presents never before published documentary evidence supporting that belief. The program will start at 6:00 p.m. and take place in the Roger Harlan Meeting Room at the Park City Library. The author will be available for a book signing following the presentation and discussion. For the most up to date information, check the library website: www.parkcitylibrary.org.
