At the invitation of Peg Nau, the author spoke, on March 14, 2016, at the Monday Club in the community room of the our hometown library on his inspiration and eventual writing and publishing of The Veteran in a New Field and the Sharpshooter on Picket Duty as well as the soon to be published third book in the Seamus Delaney series; Prisoners from the Front.
The presentation was very well received and Peg, presented the writer with a beautifully, hand-crafted bird feeder. Knowing our interest in both birds and history, she decorated the feeder with paintings and designs in an Early American style. It was a real pleasure meeting the ladies of the Monday Club. The club goes back in Saugerties history for better than a century.
