mediabistro.com’s Throwing a Party for Nina Burleigh

mediabistro.com is hosting a book party for Nina Burleigh next Monday to celebrate the publication of Mirage: Napoleon’s Scientists and the Unveiling of Egypt, a history of the late 18th-century French archaelogical expeditions that revolutionized our understanding of ancient Egypt—an odd change of pace for a People staff writer, you’d think, if you didn’t know she’d also written a book about the founding of the Smithsonian. Anyway, if you’re free that evening, you can RSVP to join the author at Mantra that evening for the cash-bar festivities.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
