I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
As a former Librarian, I would often scour the community for hidden talents that I could use in Library programs. So when I saw this book, the concept of a community-oriented foundation, I wanted to read it to see what ideas that I could gather. It was very interesting and hard to fit into one category. Although it stands as written documentation of what the Lintilhac Foundation was able to do fo,r and with, their community – it also serves as a biography of people that were affected by the Foundation’s passion and generosity. The book is full of projects taken on by the Lintilhac family – which includes detailed research, taking on political challenges, delving into scientific facts, encouraging new laws, and providing continual support and guidance for the projects they start. Even though the focus is Vermont, the book serves as a guide for any long-term philanthropic projects. The book is 275 pages written in very easy to understand language that pulls the reader into the story. Also includes many black and white photographs which make the book more personal in nature. Might be a good recommendation for non-fiction readers interested in local event/local history.… (meer)
