CFAMN Book Club
Virtual & Re-Imagined!
December 2, 2020 | 5 - 6 pm CT
"In my whole life, I have known no wise people (over a broad subject matter area) who didn't read all the time — none, zero." – Charlie Munger
Who: Aspiring reader, casual reader, book nerd.
How to prepare: Come as you are. Read none of the book, read part of the book, read all of the book. There will be a leader for each book who's already read the book and will provide summary comments from their perspective. From there people can share as much or as little as they choose.
We want book club to be fun. We want to encourage reading. We want to provide you with another opportunity to connect with others who are interested in reading and learning.
Book: Mission Black List #1: The Inside Story of the Search for Saddam Hussein –As Told by the Soldier Who Masterminded his capture.
The link below is an interview of Eric Maddox and pairs well with the book, as the book details the story of the capture of Saddam Hussein but the interview covers aspects not covered in the book and discusses a key topic most can improve on…….listening.
