Description:
The Wilderness Road Regional Museum presents a Book Talk and Signing by Author Madeline Hoge on Thursday, September 23, 2021.
Join us for a special book signing and talk by Madeline Hoge on her recently published book entitled "Sleeping in the Valley: As long as our story lives, we live". The focus of the book revolves around the Hoge and Howe Families from Pulaski County.
The book's overviews reads: Prominent Virginia families sleep eternally in a cemetery overlooking Sunnyside, their ancestral home. A peaceful resting place, nestled among the familiar hills they loved so much. Their joys and tears during their time on earth, forgotten as the decades moved on. Their life stories are now uncovered to be remembered for future generations. We can learn from the pain and struggles beginning with the birth of our nation. They can teach us about the core values and their magnificent vision for a republic. These notable Scottish and English ancestors left their heraldry for America's wilderness to become some of the first pioneer families in Southwest Virginia.
Following the talk, Madeline Hoge will hold a book signing and attendees can enjoy light refreshments on the back porch at the museum.
Admission is free though donations are always welcome.
Books will be available for purchase in the museum shop.
