Arlington Reads 2011

Arlington Reads 2011

The Soldier's Story: Serving Country and Community

Arlington Reads 2011 featured Tim O'Brien, author of "The Things They Carried," and David Finkel, author of "The Good Soldiers."

Arlington County - home to the Pentagon, Fort Myer and Arlington National Cemetery - is never far from war.  Because understanding a soldier's life and work is so relevant to our community, the theme for our 2011 Arlington Reads initiative is "The Soldier's Story: Serving Country and Community."
