The Toadstool Bookshops of Keene, Milford, and Peterborough, NH

Please join us for a special reading and signing with local writer Evelyn Blanchard for "Peace and other poems". As she says in the preface:

"Most of the poems presented here reveal what was in my heart at the time of its conception. It is to be noted that I am a lover of the divine and the beauty of nature; that I have deep feeling for the joys and sorrows, loves and fantasies of people of all ages, and that I can still see the amusing side of life. Children will find poems here written especially for them."

former NHPR host JOHN
WALTERS signing and discussing ROADS
LESS TRAVELED: VISIONARY NEW ENGLAND LIVES extended  profiles of two dozen accomplished
people  he interviewed for his “Front
Porch” program on NHPR.

John Walters, of New Hampshire Public Radio's The Front Porch, has published Roads Less Traveled: Visionary New England Lives. In the course of his work as a writer and radio personality, Walters has interviewed some of the most extraordinary people in New Hampshire and Vermont. For Roads Less Traveled he has written extended profiles of some of his very favorite people. Walters writes of brilliance, talent, dedication, and persistence; of devotion to an art, craft, a cause; or simply of a life lived long and well. He writes of people who have, quite literally, taken a road less traveled. They have pursued their own visions. Their stories testify to the breadth of human intelligence and creativity, and the indomitability of the human spirit.

John Walters is a writer, editor and radio journalist. He was the creator and host of The Front Porch, an award-winning interview show on NHPR. He is a former resident of Elkins, N.H., and now lives in East Montpelier, VT. He is the managing editor of The Bridge, a weekly newspaper, and is the 2009 winner of the Donald M. Murray Outstanding Journalism Award presented by the New Hampshire Writers' Project.
