The Bradley Hills Village Book Group will meet on February 18, 2026 from 7:30-9:00 pm to discuss Rachel Carson and her Sisters: Extraordinary Women Who Have Shaped America's Environment by Robert K. Musil.

In Rachel Carson and Her Sisters, Robert K. Musil redefines the achievements and legacy of environmental pioneer and scientist Rachel Carson, linking her work to a wide network of American women activists and writers and introducing her to a new, contemporary audience. Rachel Carson was the first American to combine two longstanding, but separate strands of American environmentalism—the love of nature and a concern for human health. Widely known for her 1962 best-seller, Silent Spring, Carson’s life’s work drew upon and was supported by already existing movements, many led by women, in conservation and public health.

In addition to being one of our neighbors in the Bradley Hills Village, Robert K Musil is President and CEO of the Rachel Carson Council, Inc.
