David Zurick to Sign New Book

Geographer, photographer and writer David Zurick, of Berea, will sign copies of his new book, “Morning Coffee at the Goldfish Pond” from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Center.

David Zurick, winner of the 2006 National Outdoor Book Award, recounts an event in his life that seems exceedingly uncomplicated: he builds a goldfish pond in his backyard. Yet, there is more to a goldfish pond than meets the eye. Zurick's compelling story travels the world, encompassing places of extraordinary beauty and rich cultural traditions, but the core of it is in Wolf Gap Holler, Kentucky, where he lives among hard-working and community-minded neighbors, cuts firewood to keep warm in the winter, and enjoys morning coffee by his goldfish pond.
