Launching American Character, Portland, Maine, Mar. 17

My new book, American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good, goes on sale Mar. 15 and, while my "world premier" is in Portsmouth, New Hampshire that evening, the hometown launch party is on March 17 here in Maine.

So if you're in the area, come on over to Longfellow Books at the center of Portland at 7pm. There will be a reception, talk, and signing, courtesy of Longfellow and co-hosts, the Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance.

The first leg of the book tour continues in Newburyport, Falmouth, Boston and Beverly, Massachusetts; Greenwich, Connecticut, and Washington, DC, but more events in Maine and beyond are coming up.

Can't make the March 17 event? Good news: the Portland Press Herald, where I'm a staff writer, is hosting an American Character event at the Portland Public Library on March 30 at 5:30. Further details to follow.

Are you a Mainer who doesn't live near Portland? I'll be a guest on WCSH-6/WLBZ-2's "207" on March 14 and on MPBN's "Maine Calling" for the full noon hour on March 15.
