Join us to learn more about Mae McGraw’s book Bitter Medicine and life during the Civil War period in the North. “The Story Behind the Story” is a brief look at the people, places, and events that affect Katie Harris, the main character and sleuth. The presentation features notable names from the Civil War period and info about medicine during this period.
A bingo-type game will follow in which participants answer questions from the presentation and Civil War trivia. Books will be available for purchase.
