Yes,
some of the vampire characters in one of the nation’s most popular
books have ties to the Appalachian Mountains! Twilight fans of all ages
will enjoy an evening with Elizabeth Baird Hardy who will put the life
of Jasper
Hale, the Oldest Living Confederate Veteran, and perspectives of Emmett
McCarty Cullen into a lively and story filled evening.
