Explore a small tidal river that enters Massachusetts Bay between Boston and Plymouth. ​It is the first state-designated scenic river, brimming with history from pre-colonial times. It survived state-approved plans to dam the river and develop its extensive salt marshes.  Its story informs our future with climate change. Join author Lyle Nyberg as he explores topics covered in his new book, On a River, which includes tales of the river and its amazing people (and fish) —- shipbuilders, toolmakers, storytellers, ministers, river pilots, fishermen, farmers, salt hayers, scientists, and politicians John Quincy Adams and Daniel Webster. The people and town of Norwell feature prominently in the book. Lyle is an independent scholar, historian, and author of five books. He has given many talks on historical topics, and documented more than 50 historic buildings.  Lyle graduated from Dartmouth College and Boston University School of Law. After a career as a corporate lawyer, Lyle retired to the seaside town of Scituate, Massachusetts. He is a member of the Scituate Historical Society, the Massachusetts Historical Society, and the New England Historical Association. https://norwellpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/history-of-the-north-river-lyle-nyberg/
