Deepest Appreciation For Everyone Who Attended Our Book Launch!
Couldn't Make It, But Still Want a Copy?
Please purchase via our online Gift Shop, or better yet, stop in and see how we are doing.
The Friends of Hempstead Plains are pleased to announce the publication of our new book, The Natural and Human History of Hempstead Plains.
The work is interdisciplinary in approach and includes contributions from geologists, biologists, botanists, historians, and artists. A team of scholars from Hofstra University, Molloy College, and Nassau Community College, along with experts from the larger community, worked cooperatively on the book which was edited and planned by Dr. Paul van Wie of Molloy College. There are articles on both the geology and ecology of the Plains as well as their important role in the history of the United States. The book was designed to be the definitive work on the subject, and a valuable resource as we work to restore and preserve the remaining Plains acreage for future generations.
To mark the publication of the Natural and Human History of Hempstead Plains, the Friends of Hempstead Plains held a “Book Launch” event on Thursday, May 12.
The event took place at Nassau Community College, in the 11th floor of the Tower Building.
WE ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED FOR REGULAR HOURS
