New Article: Diana Gabaldon, author of the Outlander series, will visit Yorktown.
From Daily Press/Virginia Gazette News:
Diana Gabaldon, the author of the best-selling “Outlander” novels that inspired a successful television series, plans to visit Yorktown for two days in September, giving a lecture and walking the battlefield.
“My talk came at an opportune time,” she said in a recent telephone interview from her Arizona home, “because I’m now working on my 10th book, and it will include the end of the American Revolution at Yorktown.”
Although Gabaldon has walked the Yorktown battlefield twice in the past three years, “I plan to stay an extra day to walk again” over the fields, putting the atmosphere firmly in her mind. “And, oh yes, Jamie (one of the series’ two main characters) will be at Yorktown.”

I live in Yorktown but sadly I will miss seeing Diana Gabaldon because I missed the sale of the tickets to the event. It sold out very quickly, to bad they can’t do another event.
