Standing Room Only to Hear Author of “Jarrettsville”

Cornelia Nixon, author of the new release Jarrettsville, drew a crowd of over a 100 to the Jarrettsville branch of Harford County Public Library on November 2. Ms. Nixon read from her new release, a true story, which accounts a love affair and a murder in a small Maryland town that is rebuilding after the Civil War. Written from more than a dozen different perspectives, Cornelia Nixon’s masterful tale centers on a pair of star-crossed lovers: Martha Jane Cairnes and Nicholas McComas.
