Book Signing: May 1, 4:00-6:00pm

Dr. Abigail Elizabeth Reynolds will be here this Saturday May 1st between 4:00 and 6:00pm for a reading of her newest release, The Reporter Wore Petticoats.
She'll be taking questions and autographing her novel.
Here's an excerpt -about the book- from her website:
"Amid the social and political constraints of the mid-nineteenth century, newspaper reporter Elizabeth Grace Fitzgerald shares her adventures throughout the eastern United States and Great Britain.
"Recounted with simplicity, tenderness, humor, and suspense, this fast-paced novel engages the reader in laughter, sympathy and outrage.
"Not another dull history book, this story of persons of high and low estate will fuel the reader’s desire to know more about the events of the Abolitionist and Suffrage movements, the Underground Railroad, and the Civil War."

Here's a link to another blog post that I found irresitable: "Well-Behaved Women Rarely Make History"

Very true, indeed.

Sounds like a hoot!
