An Evening With Philippa Gregory








The #1 New York Times bestselling author, Philippa Greggory will be at the Landmark Theater on Main Street in Port Washington on Monday, October 17th @ 7:30 pm. With over 8 million copies of her books in print, Gregory has brought the Tudor court to vibrant life for readers around the world. Now, in The Cousins' War series, she brings to life the Plantagenets, the noble family that preceded the Tudors - chronicling the turbulent years of strife most commonly known as the War of the Roses. She will discuss The Women of the Cousin's War (September 2011). Co-authored with two eminent historians, David Baldwin and Michael Jones, this work of non-fiction offers fascinating biographical essays about the inspirations behind Philippa Gregory's fiction and a sweeping picture of one of the most intriguing periods in English history. Gregory will also read from and discuss The Lady of the River (coming out October 2012). Books will be available for purchase and signing. The event is co-sponsored with the Friends of the Port Washington Public Library.
