Brooklyn Book Beat is Brooklyn Daily Eagle’s blog devoted to all things literary — books, authors, history, and associated events.

The Eagle, once edited by Walt Whitman, has long been covering Brooklyn news and events, but this blog serves as a special haven for bookworms. BookBeat features Brooklyn-based writers, as well as stories relating to the city and its history.
