Duttons Books Brentwood & Beverly Hills – Critically acclaimed readings and events. This week in Brentwood: Gary B. Nash signs The Unknown American Revolution: The Unruly Birth of Democracy and the Struggle to Create America. “In the rows of august marble busts that commemorate the American Revolution, we have lost sight of the true radical spirit of the longest and most disruptive upheaval in our history, argues distinguished American historian Gary B. Nash. In this brilliant reexamination of the swirl of ideology, grievance, outrage, and hope that animated the revolutionary decades, Nash demonstrates that though the Founding Fathers led the charge, the energy to raise a revolt emerged from all classes and races of American society.” This week in Beverly Hills: Sat, 6/25, 11am: Storytime with Meg and Sir Gabe. Sat, 6/25, 7pm: Curtis Sittenfeld signs Prep. 11975 San Vicente Blvd., Brentwood, (310) 476-6263 or www.duttonsbrentwood.com. Duttons Beverly Hills – 447 N. Canon Drive.
