Author Clay Hoffman will tell the true story of how a group of Union raiders commandeered a Confederate locomotive in Georgia in April 1862 and attempted to ride it north to Chattanooga while doing as much damage as possible to the Confederate railroad. It was a bold attempt that had the potential of bringing an early end to the Civil War. Many of the Union raiders became the first recipients of the Medal of Honor.

The Mission Valley Branch Library is one of the thirty-five branches of the San Diego Public Library system. The 19,760 sq. ft. facility was opened July 20, 2002. The Library received an Orchid Award from the San Diego Chapter of the American Institute of Architects for "Best Institutional Design" and "Best Divine Details" for the lighted tree columns/sculptures throughout the facility. The Library includes a large community meeting room, seminar rooms, a children's library, an outdoor patio with a children's garden which has a flowing river sculpture, a computer lab and a mezzanine and terrace. Its excellent collection of books and media, central location, and close proximity to retailers and a trolley stop have made it a popular Library destination for many San Diegans.
