Two Great March 2024 Events on Boston’s North and South Shores!

I want to thank the communities and readers of Abington (MA) and Middleton (MA) for two great events in March. The Town of Abington selected my book, The Caning, as its community-wide read for 2024, and we had an outstanding discussion on March 14. I’m shown here with Library Director Deb Grimmett, who organized the event. I’ve spoken in Abington several times and have always been treated with “welcoming warmth” by residents. “Your comments about the research and writing process were insightful, and I know that the audience thoroughly enjoyed the question-and-answer session,” Deb wrote to me afterwards.

On St. Patrick’s Day, I visited the beautiful Flint Library in Middleton, MA (complete with its historic and spectacular stained glass window) to discuss my book, Voyage of Mercy, an appropriate topic for the day! The event was co-sponsored by the library and the North Shore chapter of the American Association of University Women (AAUW). I’m shown here with Lou Hills, who presented me with a print of the USS Jamestown as it departed Boston for its mission to Ireland! This group engaged in an excellent discussion and asked some amazing questions – a terrific way to spend a St. Patrick’s Day afternoon.
