Author Chris Register to speak Aug. 6 at library

NEW ULM — What do Americans really think about what is going on in the world? What do they find important? Author Chris Register decided to find out.

Setting out on his touring bicycle, he is peddling solo, camping along the way, through all 50 states in 10 marathon rides over the regions of our country. All along the way, he is stopping to interview ordinary people from all walks of life to find out what is important and meaningful to them. Are we really so divided? What Chris has found may surprise you, inspire you, or at least help you understand other people that call our nation home.

Join the New Ulm Public Library on Friday, Aug. 6 at 4 p.m. for a special presentation by Chris on the first journey he took across the Midwest, including Minnesota. Learn about the people and places he visited as well as the adventure of riding across America solo by bicycle.

This free program is made possible by a grant provided by the Traverse des Sioux Library Cooperative and funded with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. Call 507-359-8331 for more information.
