author talk

It would be hard to find anyone who would say getting outdoors is bad for you. Kathryn Reed has three books that will help you explore the greater Lake Tahoe area.

UPDATE: This event is postponed.

Location

South Lake Tahoe JoAnn Conner will be at Camp Richardson on March 11 at 11:00 a.m. for "Sunday Morning With a Local Author."

Conner, who has written two books will be giving an author talk and book signing.

The first, Heartwood, is historical fiction centered in 1867 Bridgeport, CA, but also adds historical bits about Carson City, Genoa, and Virginia City. Information about the everyday life is historically accurate.

The Friends of the Library present local author JoAnn Conner who will share the experience of getting her first book published. Conner's book, "Heartwood", is a work of historical fiction set in 1867 Bridgeport, California. The book tells the story of a young man who came west after the Civil War and stops in Bridgeport, where he buys an old ranch.Historical tidbits are laced through the story, with facts about Virginia City, Bodie, Genoa, and Carson City helping to build the tension to a surprise twist at the end. Books will be sold and signed at the event. Free and open to all.
