SUMMARY:Kennebunkport Launch of Bound for Gold
DESCRIPTION:KENNEBUNKPORT LAUNCH OF "BOUND FOR GOLD" by WILLIAM MARTIN @ Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library Aug 19 at 2   3:30 pm A Fundraiser for Graves Memorial Library - Mothers Wing New York Times best-selling author\, William Martin will join us on Sunday\, August 19th at 2:00 to launch his new book\, Bound for Gold published by Forge Books\, July 3\, 2018. Bound for Gold continues New York Times bestselling author William Martin's epic of American history with the further adventures of Boston rare-book dealer Peter Fallon and his girlfriend\, Evangeline Carrington. They are headed to California\, where their search for a lost journal takes them into the history of Gold Rush. The journal follows young James Spencer\, of the Sagamore Mining Company\, on a spectacular journey from staid Boston\, up the Sacramento River to the Mother Lode. During his search for a "lost river of gold\," Spencer confronts vengeance\, greed\, and racism in himself and others\, and builds one of California's first mercantile empires. In the present\, Peter Fallon's son asks his father for help appraising the rare books in the Spencer estate and reconstructing Spencer's seven-part journal\, which has been stolen from the California Historical Society. Peter and Evangeline head for modern San Francisco and quickly discover that there's something much bigger and more dangerous going on\, and Peter's son is in the middle of it.
