Russian presentation at library

On Tuesday, Oct. 16 at 6:30 p.m. author Charles Cole will speak at the Hot Springs County Library. He will give a presentation on his time in Russia and his observations on Russian-American relations.

An honor graduate of the Defense Language Institute’s Russian course, Cole also has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Russian. He has been actively engaged in the study and professional application of the Russian language for over 50 years.

His current work, In Russian Wonderland, highlights his observation of daily life in the USSR from his six-month tour of duty as a Russian speaking “guide” on a United States Information Agency exhibit traveling within the Soviet Union.
