<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>On Wednesday, October 20 at </span></font>2 pm the Cape Cod Museum of
Natural History in Brewster will present “<i><span style='font-style:
italic'>Dig for the Oyster...Dig</span></i>,” a discussion of the books
by Mark Kurlansky in the Clarence Hay Library. Museum admission is free for
attendees.<br>
<br>
Despite humble-sounding titles, Mark Kurlansky’s books, especially <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Salt</span></i>, <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Cod
</span></i>and <i><span style='font-style:italic'>The Big Oyster</span></i>,
encompass the fascinating history and economies of the world and the ocean. <br>
<br>
You are encouraged to read at least one book, so that you will be able to
participate. If you are short of time, Kurlansky has written children’s
versions of both <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Salt</span></i> and <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Cod</span></i>… <i><span style='font-style:
italic'>The Story of Salt</span></i> and <i><span style='font-style:italic'>The
Tale of the Cod</span></i>, which go much faster.<br>
<br>
The discussion leaders are Sue Marcus and Sue Carr.<br>
Please join us on October 20<sup>th</sup> for a fascinating discussion.<br>
<br>
