Join us for the April Books at the Bar book club. This months book is "The Stranger in the Woods

Could you disappear and live as a hermit in the woods? Many people dream of escaping modern life, but most will never act on it. This is the remarkable true story of a man who lived alone in the woods of Maine for 27 years, making this dream a reality; not out of anger at the world, but simply because he preferred to live on his own. Christopher Knight disappears and would not have a conversation with another human being until nearly three decades later, when he was arrested for stealing food.
