QCWA Nutmeg Chapter Luncheon
03 February 2010 10:06 PM Filed in: QCWA
The February 13th QCWA Meeting Speaker will make you feel good that you came.
He is a well-known and highly respected editor and newsman whose career in Connecticut news circles spans several decades. Despite his imposing background, he is a regular, relaxed guy who is an entertaining speaker and one who will make you feel glad you came to the meeting.
It is James H. “Jim” Smith, currently executive editor of the New Britain Herald and the Bristol Press. He will speak about his career, his book and other matters.
His book is a fascinating tale of the Revolutionary War era. It contains a lot of adventure with a bit of romance woven in. It is about a beautiful, intelligent, young Seneca who has just reached womanhood. The story involves historical giants-- like Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Lafayette -- who cannot resist her charms. The book also contains a modicum of serious social commentary on America’s early years.
(His book, published by Plaidswede Publishing of Concord, N.H., is available at Barnes & Noble and NHBooksellers.com.)
If you have not already signed up to go to our luncheon, please make your reservation now!
