St. Charles "Images of America" Book by Dianna Graveman

Writer and fellow Lindenwood instructor Dianna Graveman and her husband Don have a new book debuting on Monday. Images of America: St. Charles Les Petites Cotes tells the rich history of St. Charles, Missouri through photographs. I am a sucker for old photos, so I'm looking forward to perusing it.

If you'd like a firsthand look, they're having a book signing on Saturday, March 28th from 1 to 3 at Main Street Books, the first day of the bicentennial celebration.

Another signing will be at Barnes & Noble in St. Peters on Saturday, April 4th from 1 to 3, and Mayor Patti York, who wrote the forward for the book, will appear from 1 to 2 p.m.

The Suburban Journals has a great article that traces the birth of the book and Dianna and Don's journey in writing it. Congrats to Dianna. I can't wait to see the book.
