SUMMARY:Third Thursday February: Celebrating Kitty Springs
DESCRIPTION:Join your neighbors in Summerville’s ultimate monthly block party\, this month celebrating the life and legacy of Catherine “Kitty” Springs – a Summerville innovator and an original “hat lady” – don your fascinators and join the FUN! \n\n\n\nShe was a milliner\, a wife\, a business owner\, a land owner\, and a mystery today\, if not in her own time. \n\n\n\nA free person of color\, she married a white man 19 years her elder. They lived openly in Summerville in the mid-1800s\, surely an unusual occurrence according to Dr. Ed West in his presentation on entrepreneurs at Third Thursday at the Summerville Dorchester Museum. \n\n\n\nHer name was Catherine Smith until she married Richard Springs\, but everyone called her Kitty. Born in 1834 in the St. Stephen area\, she was one-half full-blooded Indian on her mother’s side. \n\n\n\nAn ambitious young woman\, Kitty moved to Charleston and opened a clothing and millinery shop. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShe was very good at what she did\, so good that she moved to Summerville to create another successful clothing business there. According to West\, researchers believe Kitty and Richard worked and lived in the area of Second North and Cedar Streets. \n\n\n\nOver time Kitty bought a considerable amount of land around the current county offices and Hutchinson Square — also unusual for a woman of color in the 1800s. She became a philanthropist in 1880\, when she donated property for a school and chapel to serve disadvantaged children\, particularly American Indian or biracial children. \n\n\n\nBut her most famous and visible contribution to Summerville is the little white church with the red door\, the Church of the Epiphany on Central Avenue\, across from the Timrod Library. \n\n\n\nThe couple is still together\, buried side by side in the Old White Meeting House and Cemetery on Dorchester Road. Her story continues to fascinate and inspire people today just as much as it did then. \n\n\n\nThanks for this contribution from Dr. West\, a historian for Dorchester County as well as the town of Summerville. A member of the museum board\, he is a frequent speaker as part of the museum’s series on local people and historical events. \n\n\n\nThe talks are free and open to the public at 6 p.m. on Third Thursdays at the museum\, which is located at 100 East Doty Avenue next to the railroad tracks.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Signing: American Wild by Marissa Hale
DESCRIPTION:On Third Thursday\, we’ll be celebrating one of our own! A few years back\, Marissa Hale was workshopping this beautiful piece of historical fiction with us. Now American Wild has been birthed and is ready to meet the world! Based on true events\, this is the inspiring story of a French widow thrust alone into the New World after her husband’s murder… \n\n\n\nAmerica. L’Amérique. A foreign land threatens to take French-born Vittorie LeClerc’s love during a revolution and ultimately succeeds during questionable peace. She watches his last breath evaporate into nothing\, leaving her to survive with only her will\, a knife and a few gold buttons. \n\n\n\nWith the help of a mysterious man of the woods and other pioneers\, Vittorie navigates uncharted territory\, language barriers\, fractious warring nations\, suspicious settlers\, underground slave kings\, and a burgeoning new government. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBased on true events and historical figures during and after the Revolutionary War\, American Wild is the unforgettable story of a woman’s odyssey into significance\, a searchlight into heart\, mind\, history\, and spirit. \n\n\n\nMeet Marissa\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnamored of the natural world and the human experience in it\, Marissa Hale has traveled to eleven countries on three continents and visited thirty-eight of the fifty United States. She learned French at a young age\, studied in Paris\, France at the American University there\, and graduated from Wheaton College with a degree in Communications. \n\n\n\nMarissa began researching the story of Frenchman’s Knob shortly after her own move to Hart County\, Kentucky in December 2007. Fresh off the road from touring with her sisters in her band and feeling for the first time like she was terrible at everything she tried to do in her new life\, she felt lost\, ill-equipped\, and alone. The band had broken up\, her dyed-red hair seemed misplaced among her sweet Amish neighbors\, and she was practically the only woman within a 50-mile radius who wasn’t married with children or a fabulous cook. \n\n\n\nWhen a neighbor delivered Florence Edwards Gardiner’s little green book of her father’s (Cyrus Edwards) stories about the landscape and its people and casually said\, “I’ve always thought someone should make a movie out of the second story\, the one about Frenchman’s Knob…” Marissa was hooked. Because of her previous experience in France and knowledge of the language\, the highest peak in Kentucky being named “Frenchman’s Knob” and the accompanying story captured her attention. \n\n\n\nMarissa knew storytelling. She could research. And she did. \n\n\n\nBefore becoming a historical fiction author with American Wild\, Marissa wrote songs and screenplays\, performed for crowds of thousands\, and taught elementary school art. In addition to writing\, she now owns a general contracting company and makes her home in South Carolina with her husband\, children\, and grandchildren.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday: Meet the Author - Chris Singleton!
DESCRIPTION:Third Thursday’s downtown block party bash takes place July 21 this month\, with a theme town-wide of Christmas in July. Here at Main Street Reads\, we’ll be featuring famed author\, baseball player and speaker Chris Singleton with his latest release\, Baseball Around the World! ALL Little Leaguers get 10% off their books! \nIt might be America’s favorite pastime\, but baseball isn’t just an American sport! \nFrom Cuba to Japan\, Australia to Italy\, a diverse melting pot of countries and cultures have embraced the ole ballgame. In Baseball Around the World\, you’ll take a multicultural world tour to meet the nations and players who have pushed baseball to international popularity–with a twist\, of course. \nFind out what they eat at Japanese baseball stadiums\, how a gold rush brought baseball to Australia\, why South Korean games are allowed to end in a tie\, and much more in this home run of a book! \nFrom the introduction: People often think of baseball as an American sport. Terms such as “America’s pastime” and the “boys of summer” bring up images of warm summer nights in small towns. Yes\, the game we think of–that we know and love–is rooted in the sandlots and Little League fields across the U.S. But baseball is so much bigger. In many ways\, baseball really is a world sport….As you read this book and learn about baseball around the world\, you’ll see just how much the game unifies us. Regardless of our differences\, our love for the game of baseball is all the same! \nChris Singleton is a former minor league baseball player drafted by the Chicago Cubs. He became a nationally-renowned speaker with a message of resilience\, forgiveness and unity following the loss of his mother in the 2015 Mother Emanuel Church Tragedy in Charleston\, SC. Chris now shares his message with over 60 organizations annually and his clients include: Boeing\, The Houston Texans\, Microsoft\, Biogen\, Volvo\, The Washington Wizards and over 100\,000 students and educators across the world. One of his children’s books\, Different – A Story About Loving Your Neighbor\, was a best seller in its category and has been featured by numerous outlets\, including The Obama Foundation. \nChris’ overall mission when speaking is to inspire his audiences with his story of resilience and to unite millions of people with his belief that\, “Love is Stronger Than Hate.” \nHis other books include Different: A Story of Loving Your Neighbor and Your Life Matters.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Signing: The Rice Birds by Lindy Carter!
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a very special book signing for The Rice Birds by Lindy Keane Carter\, which NYT bestselling authors are already calling brilliant! \n“Like the hunted rice birds of South Carolina’s Lowcountry\, two desperate women—an Irish indentured servant and an enslaved servant—flee antebellum Charleston in this meticulously researched and beautifully crafted odyssey to freedom. I loved it.” – Mary Alice Monroe\, New York Times bestselling author of 27 books\, including THE BEACH HOUSE series \n“In a poignant story of two runaway women who befriend each other in 1849 Charleston to survive\, The Rice Birds will steal your heart. The starving Irish immigrant and the enslaved house servant battle a common enemy while seeking to find their loved ones snatched from their arms. Lindy Carter’s transportive prose will carry you through this compelling and splendid story.” –Patti Callahan Henry\, New York Times bestselling author \n“Lindy Keane Carter is a captivating writer of historical fiction and a powerful storyteller. The Rice Birds has tension on every page\, truth that shocks and exposes\, and characters we come to love. I am a big fan of Carter’s writing talent\, and her latest novel is a first-class winner!” – Leah Weiss\, bestselling author of If the Creek Don’t Rise and All the Little Hopes \nThe Rice Birds: In 1849\, twin sisters fleeing Ireland’s famine arrive at New York’s seaport. Only Nora is allowed to get on the boat to South Carolina to fulfill her work contract. On her employer’s vast rice plantation\, an enslaved worker— Pearl—befriends her. After one of them commits a crime\, the girls flee to Charleston\, a dangerous place for runaways. Nora frantically seeks to get back to her sister\, while Pearl tries to find her mother before heading north. \nMeanwhile\, an old enemy’s illegal scheme is about to derail the girls’ plans. \nHistorically accurate\, this newly published work from Evening Post Books draws upon interviews with academics\, historians\, and educators\, as well as dissertations\, histories\, Gullah stories\, cookbooks\, and the diaries of Lowcountry rice planters. The Rice Birds takes the reader beyond the well-known narrative about Charleston’s history to reveal real events and lives that have seen little light in contemporary books. Some stories were so compelling\, they needed little embellishment before being woven into this tale. \nLindy Keane Carter is a graduate of the University of Georgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication. After writing non-fiction for 30 years\, she signed up for a fiction-writing class at a community college in Maryland. Her short stories won awards in 2003 and 2009 in the South Carolina Arts Commission’s Fiction Project contest. The Rice Birds is her third published novel. Lindy is the mother of two daughters and a son. Visit her at www.facebook.com/LindyCarterAuthor or www.LindyCarter.com.

SUMMARY:Sweetest Third Thursday Ever
DESCRIPTION:On the third Thursday of each month Historic Downtown Summerville transforms into a special marketplace featuring local entertainment\, craft vendors and artisans\, to complement the extended hours of shops and restaurants. \n\n\n\nHere at Main Street Reads we’re offering you up not one but TWO amazing authors that night – Syril Kline (author of the award-winning Shakespeare’s Changeling) and A.F. Winter\, author of the soon-to-be-released Man in the Pandemic. \n\n\n\n1st place winner of the Chaucer Award for Historical Fiction\, Shakespeare’s Changeling is a controversial historical novel: Charged in 1616 by the Earls of Pembroke and Montgomery to edit a folio of Shakespeare plays\, writer Ben Jonson races against time to uncover the missing manuscripts by seeking out his former nemesis\, the bedridden William Shaxper. But far more worrisome is that the Earl of Oxford’s daughter\, the Countess of Montgomery\, wants the folio published as a tribute to her father. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWitty\, intriguing and suspenseful\, Syril Levin Kline’s controversial novel calls into question everything you ever thought you knew about the Bard by exploring the irony of a creative genius forced to hide behind the identity of another. Kline proudly joins Mark Twain\, Walt Whitman\, Samuel Taylor Coleridge\, James Joyce\, Charles Dickens and others in their skepticism about the Shakespeare authorship. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMan in the Pandemic offers an intimate snapshot into a recent history we all know too well: Sent to work from home and in isolation from the onset of the pandemic\, Frank Smith is losing control over his carefully constructed environment. \n\n\n\nSoon forced into unemployment\, his hyper-focus turns towards what he can control: walking endless circles in his home\, conserving toilet paper and battling pests as he struggles to hold onto his sanity. Smith tries to make sense of social unrest and systemic racism\, natural disasters and climate change as he faces personal demons of loneliness\, fear and a lifetime of regrets. Simply told yet deceptively complex\, this dark comedy will resonate with anyone questioning their place in the universe as we navigate a world gone mad…
