That was quick!

Delaware at Christmas is newly out, and I’m honored to see it already included among the 36 titles currently featured in the “Delaware Authors: Adult Non-Fiction” section at DelawareLibraries.org. The site regularly highlights books by authors who were born in, lived in, or currently reside in the First State.
Here’s how they describe it:
“A fascinating glimpse into the rich and diverse holiday traditions of one of America's most historically significant states.”
The book explores everything from holly wreaths and eggnog to outdoor decorations and forgotten winter customs—tracing how Delaware helped shape the American holiday season.
Thanks to the Delaware library community for the early recognition.
