The Hawk Eye

Most weeks in Currents, Nancy Robinson of the Burlington Public Library provides lists of library resources to expand on the cover story subject. At the conclusion of The Weekly Read, The Hawk Eye invited Robinson to share her Top 10 favorite reads from the library's shelves.

* "Seabiscuit" (636.12 HIL) - This is one of the most satisfying books I have ever read. Set during the Great Depression, the well-researched story follows Seabiscuit from also-ran to winner in arguably the greatest horse race ever against Triple Crown winner War Admiral. This is a terrific read and knowing the ending doesn't diminish the experience.
