Join Bridgeside Books in welcoming Bill Mares 'The Full Vermonty: Vermont in the Age of Trump' for a book signing and reading.
ABOUT THE BOOK: Vermont is a small state with a history of making a large impact. We're little, but we're loud. We recognize that we can’t ignore Trump and his actions, but he won’t be able to ignore us, either. Short of seceding from Union (we’ve already tried that to no avail), you can be sure that we’re not just going to sit back. That’s not our style.

"Better than all of our flavors combined! This is a book that will make you laugh and cry, not necessarily in that order." -Jerry Greenfield, Ben & Jerry's
