Anarchists and cats at Third Place Books this weekend

Author events at Third Place Books could not be farther apart in subject than this weekend.

On Friday evening, July 15, 2011 at 6:30pm, author Scott Miller will present his book "The President and the Assassin : McKinley, Terror, and Empire at the Dawn of the American Century (Random House)

"The President and the Assassin is both a sweeping history of turn-of-the-century America and the shocking tale of two of the era’s most compelling figures: President William McKinley and Leon Czolgosz, the anarchist who murdered him."

Then on Sunday afternoon, July 17, 2011 at 2pm, children’s book illustrator Wendy Wahman will talk about her new book, A Cat Like That, a book about being friends with cats, and will be joined by local kid’s authors Samantha Vamos, Kevan Atteberry, Carmela D'Amico, Rick and Steffanie Lorig, and Paul Schmid.

Third Place Books is located on the upper level of the Lake Forest Park Towne Centre at the intersection of Ballinger Way and Bothell Way.
