Literary Salon
Feb 16th, 7-9PM
featuring a Reading & Signing with Frank Cox
 
Author of Marist Football: Inside the War Eagle Tradition and Lullabies for Lieutenants: Memoir of a Marine Forward Observer in Vietnam, 1965-1966.
The War Eagle tradition boasts more than six hundred victories, a trophy case filled with championships and thirty straight years of playoff appearances in Georgia high school football, all while playing much larger schools. Join author and Marist alumnus Frank Cox for three years inside the Spartan-esque tradition and learn why no team dares allow itself to dishonor the glorious roll call of War Eagle history.
Mr. Cox received his undergraduate degree in English Literature from Saint Bernard College in 1963. His book "Lullabies for Lieutenants: Memoir of a Marine Forward Observer in Vietnam: 1965-1966" won the 2011 Silver Medal for Non-Fiction Memoir awarded by the Military Writers Society of America.

quo.ta.bles
"Everywhere I go, I'm asked if I think the universities stifle writers. My opinion is that they don't stifle enough of them. There's many a best seller that could have been prevented by a good teacher." - Flannery O'Connor

A tisket, a tasket, Callie in a basket.
Boo says, "Printer, what printer?"  Edward Gorey rocks!  Independent, sweet Picasso, one of our outdoor colony...alive and well!

Donations are always welcome! Help us keep the feral cat population down!
Atlanta Vintage Books' Cat Sanctuary is a labor of love. We have 5 indoor cats, and 15-20 who reside outdoors. They are spayed and neutered, fed daily, and sheltered during the winter. Those who can be are adopted. And those who can't, always have a home here.
