If you are an avid reader of books about the old west or watchers of old westerns depicting life in the early days of Arizona, don't miss the April 12th appearance of Jim Turner, the Encore's Speakers Bureau final program of the spring season.
Including the works of Arizona novelists Zane Grey, Harold Bell Wright, Richard Summers, Eva Antonia Wilbur Cruz and Susan Lowell, Jim Turner weaves the perspectives of five western authors into a program that paints a colorful picture of our state's past.
During his tenure on the Arizona Historical Society, Jim worked in an advisory capacity with more than 70 museums across the state. An accomplished author, Jim has taught American history for more than 40 years.
If you are enchanted by the perseverance, vision, fortitude, challenges and spirit of the old west, you won't want to miss this program.
