SUMMARY:Behind the Book with David O. Stewart
DESCRIPTION:Register today for this virtual talk from the comfort of your home for a thrilling conversation with award-winning historian David O. Stewart about his newest work\, The Democracy We Must Keep\, and the question he explores throughout the book: What did America’s founders say about democracy\, and can we remain true to their vision for America? \nTwo hundred fifty years ago\, passionate men attempted to create something the world had never seen before: a nation built not on kings or armies\, but on ideas where the people ruled. \nIn The Democracy We Must Keep\, historian David O. Stewart takes readers inside the nine key documents that shaped the formation of the United States—from Patrick Henry’s thunderous cry for liberty to the carefully crafted design of a government chosen by the people\, with limits on all officials holding power under the Constitution. \nThrough the words of seven visionary founders—Washington\, Jefferson\, Madison\, Hamilton\, Gouverneur Morris\, and others—Stewart shows how a fragile experiment in self-government took shape. \nThese men were not saints. They argued passionately. They worried that the new nation might fall apart. Yet together\, they forged the principles that must still define American democracy: \nPower must be limited.\nLeaders must answer to the people.\nIndividual rights must be protected by law.\nAs the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary\, The Democracy We Must Keep urges readers to rediscover core ideas that built the nation—and to consider what it will take to protect them. \nRegister today to gain a deeper understanding of how American democracy started\, why it still matters\, and the active role each generation must play to uphold it.\nRegister here (it’s FREE) and ask questions of the authors:\nhttps://libraryc.org/ebatesville/195219\nDigital live-stream is on Tuesday\, September 1\, 2026 at 2:00 PM EST.\n\nCan’t attend live. No worries. Click the link above for the recording after the live date. This program is brought to you by Batesville Library and The Friends of the Library.

SUMMARY:Behind the Book with Daniel Kraus
DESCRIPTION:Register today for this virtual talk from the comfort of your home for a conversation with master storyteller Daniel Kraus\, winner of the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction\, to celebrate the release of his breathtaking new novel\, The Sixth Nik.\nDeep into space\, far past the triworld outposts\, beyond range of the lethal trollbot internet\, soars The Sickness: a ship woven from biomatter and capable of reacting to every need of its human crew. Sisilla\, a nine-year-old cultist with a brain enhanced by arcane tech known as “niks\,” has boarded to investigate the enigma of Fém—a plague-riddled planet that has abruptly gone rogue. \nThe mysterious crew includes a faceless assassin\, a beautiful engineer jigsawed by plastic surgery\, a peyote-addicted medic\, and—most lethal of all—a rugged\, NonModded captain with a score to settle with Sisilla. Other dangers abound. A hacked robot begins to believe Sisilla is its daughter. The Sickness itself is mutating\, possibly even pregnant. And the secret of Fém is more horrific than anyone could have imagined. To survive\, Sisilla will need to forsake her predetermined fate and embrace the unknown. \nRegister now to gain exclusive insight from one of the most visionary voices in modern fiction. \nRegister here (it’s FREE) and ask questions of the authors:\nhttps://libraryc.org/ebatesville/194538\nDigital live-stream is on Tuesday\, September 8\, 2026 at 7:00 PM EST.\n\nCan’t attend live.
