Fitchburg Community Read Presents Keith Gentili Live

Fitchburg Community Reads Presents Keith Gentili Thursday, March 21 from 6:00-8:00pm at Fitchburg State University 

Hear author Keith Gentili, a Fitchburg State Alumnus, as he talks about his book White Mountains State: A Four-Year Journey Hiking and Summiting New Hampshire’s 48 Highest Peaks. Keith will be joined by other alumni that are included in the book. Keith’s presentation will last about 90 minutes, with additional time for questions. This event is free and open to all to attend. The event will be an in-person event held on the Fitchburg State University campus.

“This is a down-to-earth, everyman story for anyone with an interest in hiking and mountain climbing. White Mountains State succeeds in highlighting both the trails and challenges of the New Hampshire 48 as well as the deep satisfaction and accomplishment that can result in finishing the list. A dedicated husband and father, and an adventurous friend to his neighbors and college buddies, Keith gives an honest and detailed account of hiking each mountain, either solo or with those he recruits, all while making sure his quest harmonizes with his family life and hiking partnerships. Gentili’s book will make you fall in love with the hills, and inspire you to climb your own mountains, whatever they may be.”

The Fitchburg State Community Read is a shared reading program between the campus and greater Fitchburg MA region.
