Join Catherine Myers on Wednesday, May 31st from 5:00 - 6:00 PM at Pass Christian Books/Cat Island Coffeehouse as she celebrates the premiere of The Magic of a Historic Structure, a collage of photos, historical data, newspaper articles, oral and written histories focusing on a special place - Pass Christian, Mississippi.
Through the years, we have lost many of these ties to our past. They have been lost through the violence of storms both named and unnamed: through the ravages of fire on the late 18th and early 19th centuries; through the greed of men - many of whom never truly called the Pass home; and the short-sightedness in and of historical preservation of buildings and trees ... It is hoped, that even though many of these structures are physically gone; we can still enjoy their magic and their memories. Photographs and words paint a picture of the history of the most special place - Pass Christian. - from the foreword by Catherine Myers.
