Decades before the Betty Ford Center became a household name — and long before the band the Dropkick Murphys named themselves in his honor — the phrase going to Dropkick’s meant a person struggling with addiction needed help and would soon get some. \nThis book chronicles for the first time the unbelievable life of Dr. “Dropkick” Murphy\, a professional wrestler who put himself through medical school during the Great Depression and then opened Bellows Farm\, a one-of-a-kind institution that served as both a facility where elite athletes could train as well as a secluded place where down-on-their-luck alcoholics could go to sober up discreetly. \nThe celebrities who frequented Dropkick Murphy’s farm were many\, and numerous professional athletes would go there to focus on their training and work out in his state-of-the-art gymnasium. As a result\, Bellows Farm featured an unrivaled and revolving cast of colorful characters who brought it to life. Drawing on years of research and interviews\, author Emily Sweeney goes behind the scenes to reveal the untold story of Murphy’s life\, his farm\, and the legendary events that unfolded there. \n  \nCopies of this book are available at the library.  \n  \nOur discussion will be on Zoom.  Please register here to receive the meeting details: \n  \n\n\n \n \n Nonfiction Book Club Registration - March 2026\n \n \n your nameemail*\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://baconfreelibrary.org/event/nfmarch26/ LOCATION:Bacon Free Library\, 58 Eliot Street\, Natick\, MA\, 01760\, United States CATEGORIES:Adult Events,Featured GEO:42.285064;-71.346109 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bacon Free Library 58 Eliot Street Natick MA 01760 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=58 Eliot Street:geo:-71.346109,42.285064 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260326T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260326T200000 DTSTAMP:20260502T033526 CREATED:20260213T160413Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260316T194140Z UID:54174-1774551600-1774555200@baconfreelibrary.org SUMMARY:VIRTUAL: Paintings of the American Revolution DESCRIPTION:In celebration of America’s Semiquincentennial\, Mallory Mortillaro presents Paintings of the American Revolution. \nWe all know the story of the Revolutionary War\, but how much of our understanding is colored by the way the war was depicted by artists?

Driving the car is journalist Michael Paterniti. Sitting next to him is an 84-year-old pathologist named Thomas Harvey\, who performed the autopsy on Einstein in 1955 — then simply removed the brain and took it home. And kept it for over forty years. \nOn a cold February day\, the two men and the brain leave New Jersey and light out on I-70 for sunny California\, where Einstein’s perplexed granddaughter\, Evelyn\, awaits. And riding along as the imaginary fourth passenger is Einstein himself\, an id-driven genius\, the original galactic slacker with his head in the stars. Part travelogue\, part memoir\, part history\, part biography\, and part meditation\, Driving Mr. Albert is one of the most unique road trips in modern literature. \n  \nCopies of this book are available at the library.  \n  \nOur discussion will be on Zoom.  Please register here to receive the meeting details: \n  \n\n \n \n Nonfiction Book Club Registration - February 2026\n \n \n your nameemail*\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://baconfreelibrary.org/event/nffeb26/ LOCATION:Bacon Free Library\, 58 Eliot Street\, Natick\, MA\, 01760\, United States CATEGORIES:Adult Events,Featured GEO:42.285064;-71.346109 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bacon Free Library 58 Eliot Street Natick MA 01760 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=58 Eliot Street:geo:-71.346109,42.285064 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260227T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260227T170000 DTSTAMP:20260502T033526 CREATED:20260214T144806Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260214T144806Z UID:54208-1772206200-1772211600@baconfreelibrary.org SUMMARY:Art for All!
