Description

Beauport Hotel Gloucester is pleased to host the first of its 2022 "Fireside Chat" Series. In our first of the series, join us in celebrating Women's History Month with local Author Katherine Sherbrook of the New York Times 2021 Summer Reading Pick, Leaving Coy's Hill. How did Susan B. Anthony’s mentor get written out of history? Come hear Katherine Sherbrooke discuss her extraordinary new novel, inspired by the life of abolitionist, pioneering feminist, and Massachusetts native, Lucy Stone. Leaving Coy’s Hill has been called “propulsive,” and “deeply relevant,” as it “beautifully imagines” the life of “the heroine we all need right now.” This Author Talk is free admission, food and drinks are available for purchase. Event will take place in the Beauport Hotel Harbor Room. RSVP via Eventbrite or email [email protected]. Author Katherine A Sherbrook Bio: Katherine A.
