USCB - July Jamboree Features
Two Southern Literary Queens
The USCB JULY JAMBOREE brings two Southern Literary queens to the USCB Lunch With Author series by featuring Dorothea Benton Frank on July 1st and concluding on July 29th with Mary Alice Monroe. Both have new books coming out in July. Dottie Frank will debut her new book, Return to Sullivans Island and Mary Alice Monroe will talk about her promised book on the shrimping industry, Last Light Over Carolina, which arrives in book stores mid-July.
Dottie Frank attained national fame with her first book Sullivans Island and now nine books later she is taking her readers back to the old family homestead on Sullivans Island and the next generation of Hamiltons and Hayes. Newly graduated from college, Beth Hayes is commissioned by the family to oversee their beloved Island Gamble for a year, much to Beth’s chagrin.
What happens during this year is why Dottie’s books come alive with Southern lore.
Last Light Over Carolina, Mary Alice Monroe returns to the South Carolina coast, this time to a small shrimping village, McClellanville. Her characters invite you to live with their families, toil with them on their shrimp boats and become part of an American family and a vanishing Southern lifestyle.
Only Mary Alice can thread the reader into the lives of her characters.
And here are the locations:
John Hart will be feted at the gorgeous Moss Creek Club House, on Route 278, Bluffton.
Dottie Frank is featured at the elegant dining room overlooking the marshes at the Sea Pines Country Club, Hilton Head Island.
Mary Alice Monroe’s shrimp theme comes alive at the shrimp docks of the Dockside Restaurant, Port Royal, South Carolina.
