In a 139 page book that is illustrated with over 80 gray-tone landscape, theme and character photographs, I introduce and write about 63 local authors, and would be authors, who present Alamance and Caswell County, NC in fiction and non-fictional books of history, magical realism, fantasy, memoirs, narrative stories, poetry and biographical sketches. In July 2013, I invited my Writers' Club members to take a heritage adventure with me and write their personal stories.
