San Juan County Historical Society will present an author talk with Anne Hillerman at 6 p.m. May 3 at Farmington Civic Center, 200 W. Arrington St.
Hillerman will speak on using historical landscapes in writing. She will discuss her newest book in the Leaphorn, Chee and Manuelito series, “The Way of the Bear,” which delves into the topics of fossil harvesting, ancient lore, greed, rejected love and murder.
The event will also pay tribute to historical society member and author Marilu Waybourn.
After the event, Hillerman will sign copies of her book. Copies of “The Way of the Bear” are available for purchase by Amy’s Bookcase. The historical society’s books, including those written by Marilu Waybourn, will also be for sale.
