St. Marys Community Public Library is featuring Dear George, Dear Mary by New York Times bestselling author Mary Calvi in a discussion on Thursday, March 9th, 2023. The discussion will be from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm in the library meeting room. Books are available at the library for checking out and reading prior to the discussion.
The subject of a documentary on Smithsonian Channel, the award-winning novel, Dear George, Dear Mary is a never-before-told story, hidden away for centuries, revealing that long before tea was tossed into Boston Harbor, unrequited love helped spark a flame that ignited a cause that became the American Revolution. Crafted from thousands of archived letters, witness accounts, journal entries, documents and published articles, the novel based on the true account, explores the relationship between George Washington & his first love, the richest belle of Colonial America, Mary Eliza Philipse.
