The “New York Times” bestselling author has done it again with her richly detailed story of an indigenous woman in 19th-century North America. Titled “Crow Mary,” the novel is inspired by the real life of a Crow Native woman, who marries a white fur trader, and soon is caught between two cultures. “Publishers Weekly” notes that “this moving story of one woman’s grit, survival, and resilience will keep readers turning the pages.” A native of Canada, Ms. Grissom now makes her home in southside Virginia.  Following the talk, Kathleen Grissom will be signing copies of her book, which will be available for purchase.
