Nick Reding “Methland” Part 3 of 4

The bestselling book that launched meth back into the nation’s consciousness, METHLAND is based on Reding’s four years of reporting in the agricultural town of Oelwein, Iowa. The book traces the connections to global forces that set the stage for the meth epidemic. METHLAND offers a vital perspective on a contemporary tragedy. It is a portrait of a community under siege, of the lives that meth has devastated, and of the heroes w…ho continue to fight the war. Samuel G. Freedman, the award-winning author, New York Times columnist and Columbia University professor, will join Nick on the Strand stage.
