VANCOUVER – Cherished historical novelist Jane Kirkpatrick will discuss stories and characters of the Pacific Northwest on Oct. 21 at the Fort Vancouver Visitor Center.
The free presentation will be from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the Visitor Center, 1501 E. Evergreen Blvd., near the east end of Officers Row.
In Kirkpatrick’s most recent novel, lead character Jennie Pickett Parrish is a natural healer, but her dream to become a doctor in 1870s Oregon puts her at odds with the world around her.
Following the presentation, Kirkpatrick will sign copies of the book, “All She Left Behind,” which will be for sale at the Friends of Fort Vancouver bookstore in the Visitor Center.
The event is hosted by the Friends of Fort Vancouver and Vintage Books, in partnership with Fort Vancouver National Historic Site.
