GRAHAMSVILLE, NY — A talk and book signing by Town of Woodstock Historian Richard Heppner on “Women in the Catskills: Stories of Struggles, Sacrifice and Hope” will be held on Sunday, October 19 at 2 p.m., at the Time and the Valleys Museum on 332 Main St.

Heppner will give an overview of this often overlooked part of Catskill Mountain history, and detail several inspiring stories of women who overcame the physical challenges of mountain life and obstacles because of their gender to accomplish amazing things.

This is a free program, and refreshments will be available. The book, published by the History Press, will be available for sale during the program and afterwards in the museum shop. For more information call 845/985-7700 or visit www.timeandthevalleysmuseum.org.
