What:
Friday, July 10th at 7 pm, Northtown Books welcomes Ursula Osborne, who will talk about the book she translated, *Not To Hate But To Love by Heinrich F. Liebrecht.
*The book tells the true story of Liebrecht, who endured brutal beatings and was captive in a Nazi concentration camp, but still found inspiration in his fellow inmates humanity and resourcefulness. The lesson he learns from his experiences is one of reconciliation, not retaliation. Osborne, whose parents were friends of Liebrecht, has recently translated his book into English.
Ursula Osbourne, a longtime resident of Humboldt County, was also recently profiled in the Times-Standard:
