Reece's Pieces

The June meeting of the GBC was by all accounts a successful affair. Big salads, ice cream sandwiches, yellow lanterns, and a hot summer night. The members even discussed the book. No spoilers were shared for those of us who had not yet ventured South of Broad (at least in the literary sense).

I must take this opportunity to shamelessly promote a new author (who happens to have a fabulous sister). Republican, First, Last, and Always: An Biography of B. Carroll Reece will soon be available from both Amazon and Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This is Dr. Bowers' first hardcover release, and I am certain we can arrange a signing. Having already read the book, I can say (without bias), that it is interesting, funny, and particularly relevant to anyone who has spent any time in Northeast Tennessee. It is also a good look at the motivations for office. In her honor, I leave the font in Times New Roman: "the only writer's font."
