SUMMARY:Frye Gaillard Talk with "A Hard Rain"
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to bring Frye Gaillard\, dear friend and author many times published by NewSouth Books\, to The NewSouth Bookstore for a talk about A Hard Rain: America in the 1960s\, on the release of its paperback edition. Join us for this special event on Thursday\, March 21 at 5:30pm. Gaillard is a talented journalist and author with over thirty published books. His A Hard Rain is considered by many to be his masterwork. The book seamlessly blends history and memoir as he vividly recalls the many historic events that made the decade so tumultuous\, so significant\, so memorable. There is no better guide to it than Frye Gaillard. His book is “essential reading” (Howell Raines).
