Riordan Mansion Lunchtime Lecture: Browsing the Bookshelves at Riordan Mansion

Riordan Mansion Lunchtime Lecture: Browsing the Bookshelves at Riordan Mansion

“We have no radio, I am pleased to say, but we read a great deal.” So wrote Tim Riordan to his sister Nell in 1932. Indeed, the Riordan family donated more than 4,000 books, magazines, and other publications when they gave their American Arts and Crafts style home to Arizona State Parks. The personal libraries of the Tim and Mike Riordan families contain books that date back to the Civil War. They reveal the families’ broad interests, and include religious, fiction, and nonfiction titles. Join us for a look behind the covers of some of the Riordans’ well-worn books.

Space is limited. Reserve your spot online at https://azstateparks.com/reserve/Activities/Search.aspx or call 928-779-4395 for additional information and same day availability. The presentation will be free thanks to Riordan Action Network.
