one interesting dish to share. Main courses, salads, and
desserts are most welcomed. The library will supply the
drinks and entertainment. Families of all ages are welcome.

on display at Mt. Lebanon Public Library in February 2020.
AN EVENING WITH AMY STEWART

Amy Stewart’s Kopp sisters
novels, starting with Girl Waits
with Gun, are based on the true
story of three extraordinary
women: Constance, Norma, and
Fleurette Kopp. In 2012, Stewart
stumbled across a 1914
newspaper article about them
and went on to uncover their
amazing history through
genealogical archives, court
records, old newspapers, and
interviews with family members.
From their story, she is writing a
series about the Kopp sisters and
their adventures in crime fighting. Stewart will share
photographs and stories about these extraordinary women
and the fascinating historical background that shaped their
world a hundred years ago. City Books will have her books for
sale at the event. Registration begins Aug. 1.
