The public is cordially invited to join guest author and historian Kim Bancroft for an author talk and afternoon tea at the Mendocino County Museum.
Bancroft will discuss her book, Writing Themselves into History: Emily and Matilda Bancroft in Journals and Letters. The book narrates the story of the two wives of Bancroft’s historian and collector great great-grandfather, highlighting how these women portrayed their lives from the 1860s to the 1890s in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Guests are encouraged to wear Victorian attire, along with Kim herself.
Event tickets will be $7.00 for adults, $3.00 for children 17 and under, and will include admission to the Museum on the day of the event.
