Author Talk

Meet Christopher Klein, author of Discovering The Boston Harbor Islands, who gave a superb book presentation this week at the Thomas Crane Public Library.  This program was sponsored by the Friends of the Library.  It gave me an opportunity to express my gratitude to the author for his well researched book.  It has been one of my "go to" resources for my blog posts about the islands.

There are 34 islands in the Boston Harbor Island National Park system; I have been fortunate to have visited 15 of them over the years and am always ready to go "island hopping".

I will be sharing some of my Bumpkin Island images later this week.

Author Visit

After reading the novel,"The Good Thief", English classes at North Quincy High School were treated to a visit from the award-winning author, Hannah Tinti. What a great opportunity for students to meet an emerging new American author. Even the mayor found time to stop by for this special event.
