John C. Hart Memorial Library Hosts Authors Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie for A Founding Mother Event

New York Times bestselling authors Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie will visit the John C. Hart Memorial Library on May 8 to promote their new novel about Abigail Adams.

Dray and Kamoie, co-authors of the acclaimed historical fiction novels America’s First Daughter and My Dear Hamilton, will discuss A Founding Mother, their latest work highlighting the extraordinary life and legacy of Abigail Adams—a woman whose intellect, courage, and influence helped shape the course of American history. Following their talk, the authors will take questions from the audience and greet guests during a book signing. Copies of A Founding Mother will be available for purchase at the event.

“This promises to be a truly fascinating literary evening,” said Yvonne Cech, Library Director. “Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie have a wonderful ability to bring history and its most compelling figures to life. We’re thrilled to invite the community to engage with their work and celebrate the enduring legacy of Abigail Adams.”
