Author Tells Tales of His Arctic Adventure at the Cary Library

Lexington’s Cary Memorial Library welcomes award winning author Mitchell Zuckoff who will talk about his latest book, “Frozen in Time.”

The Boston University professor and journalist joined a recovery mission to the polar cap in Greenland. The mission went to find three planes that went down in the area six decades earlier, during World War II.

Along with first-person interviews, Zuckoff used declassified documents, maps, personal photographs and previously unpublished journals to write “Frozen in Time: An Epic Story of Survival, and a Modern Quest for Lost Heroes of World War II.”

He was a finalist for the Pulitzer during his time at the Boston Globe and won the Winship/PEN New England Award for his previous book, “Lost in Shangri-La.”

Zuckoff will share his latest tale when he visits the Cary Library on Thursday, July 11 at 7 p.m.

You must pre-register for the event, and may do so by signing up at the reference desk, or by calling the library at 781-862-6288, ext. 250.
