Local Author Series- Maureen Sullivan

Local Author Series- Maureen Sullivan In-Person

Join Maureen Sullivan as she discusses her book Dear Brother. Dear Brother is the story of the McOmber family, the family of Stephen and Hannah McOmber and their nine children as told through their letters. Spanning a 72-year period, from 1851 to 1923, the letters tell the story of a family that is at once ordinary, yet unique, their stories personal, yet universal. Individually, the letters reveal the experiences, thoughts, and feelings of the writer; collectively, they offer a time capsule of sorts offering insights into the social history of pre-Civil War America to the early 20th century.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase.
