Join bestselling author Paul Clerici as he discusses the iconic Boston Marathon and takes you through the colorful 26.2-mile journey.


With his unique vast array of experience and knowledge, he brings the great race to life through informative, humorous, and enlightening detail that includes stories about every moment, landmark, and portion of the course - the very beginnings of the race in Ashland; various start lines in Hopkinton; the year in which a train cut through the race in Framingham; the Scream Tunnel of women at Wellesley College; the Johnny Kelley statue in Newton; different finish lines in Boston; and much more - from its start in 1897 to present day.


His storytelling is supplemented with a multimedia presentation of images from his books, which include some from rare collections and some never seen before!

Among his books are “Boston Marathon History by the Mile” and “Images of Modern America: The Boston Marathon.” Books will be available to purchase and can be signed by the author.
