Join author J.A. Stein for a discussion about the history of Mary D as well as a Q&A session about her new book, Patch Town. There will be a book signing and meet and greet afterwards. Patch Town is a novel based on the true story of a town that united against corporate power.

About the author:

J.A. Stein grew up exploring the woods surrounding her Pennsylvania home. It was there that she learned to let her imagination run wild. Love of the outdoors led to a career training horses, now shared with her passion for writing, for which she has a bachelor degree. Her novels Knightess and The Last Farm are winners of a Royal Dragonfly Book Awards. She spent a great deal of time at her grandparents' house in Mary D, and family stories inspired much of this book.

Patch Town is available for purchase in the Schuylkill County Historical Society gift shop or by clicking the link below.
