Local Author Discussion: Lori Duffy Foster

Local author Lori Duffy Foster will discuss her new novel “A Dead Man’s Eyes” at the Bradford County Library, via Zoom, at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 16.
Lisa Jamison has done well for a single mom who got pregnant at fifteen.

She’s a reporter at a newspaper and her teenage daughter is both an athlete and honors student. Though their relationship is rocky these days, Lisa has accomplished what she set out to do. She has given her daughter the kind of life she never had. But all that changes when Lisa sees her daughter in the eyes of a dead man. The cops call it a drug killing, but Lisa doesn’t believe it. She knows her ex-boyfriend was no drug dealer even though she hadn’t seen him in sixteen years. Lisa ignores warnings from her medical-examiner friend. She fails to heed threats from the sheriff of a neighboring county. Instead, she risks her life and the lives of her daughter and their closest friend on a dangerous quest for answers.

This program is free and open to the public. Contact the Bradford County Library at (570) 297-2436 or bclibrary@bradfordco.org for Zoom information.

Perhaps the most pivotal battle of the American Ci

Perhaps the most pivotal battle of the American Civil War took place at Gettysburg. Between July 1st and 3rd, 1863, Union Major George Meade led the charge to repulse Robert E. Lee's Confederate forces as they pushed North. The exact number of casualties is unclear, but it is estimated that upwards of 23,000 were killed, injured, captured, or missing. The famous names are well known, but a number of Pennsylvania Generals were also present and involved in this iconic incident.

Join our Pennsylvania History Series where we explore Commonwealth, regional and local history. This time we examine the impact of Pennsylvania Generals who helped shape this historic battle. The event will be presented June 30th at 6pm on Zoom.

During this special presentation we will view a film created by the Susquehanna Valley Center and discuss the role of these important figures.

"The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here so nobly advanced." -Abraham Lincoln

Pioneering railroader, businessman, and politician Asa Packer left an indelible mark on Pennsylvania. He laid the groundwork for and founded Lehigh University as a technical school providing free education, led the expansion of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company into Luzerne, Schuylkill, and Susquehanna Valley, served as a judge in Carbon County, acted as a member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, and then served as a two term Congressman in the U.S. House of Representatives.

During this special presentation we will view a film created by the Susquehanna Valley Center and talk about this iconic figure.

“Asa Packer, a native of Connecticut, whose name and fame belong to the state of Pennsylvania, as well as this locality, came here in 1833. His name has been connected with almost every important enterprise of the valley, and will ever be revered as that of the founder of Lehigh University, and the doer of other great and good deeds."
