I’m so excited about all the presentations this year! A few more locations are pending. The first one is February 28th, at the Lincoln County Tourism Expo in Caliente.

Most are about my new books, In the Shadow of the Sierra and In the Glow of the Sierra: ghost towns of the Eastern Sierra. I am especially looking forward to the Nevada State Museum: Dust to Dust in the Desert: Unearthing Nevada’s Historic Cemeteries.
Books will be available at all the events. Topics might vary slightly as I progress and confirm details.
I’m looking forward to seeing everyone! I’ll look into online presentations for those who can’t attend in person.
