With the help of our presenting funding partners — Delaware Humanities and The Lee Ann Wilkinson Group, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices I PenFed Realty — as well as our program and community partners, volunteers, and donors, the 2023 History Book Festival was full of great discussions with authors of newly published narrative nonfiction and historical fiction.
The Keynote Address, presented by Sally Mott Freeman and John K. Freeman, featured NPR host Steve Inskeep discussing his new book on Abraham Lincoln with Christina Shutt, Director of the Lincoln Presidential Library. The Closing Address, presented by Dogfish Head Beer & Benevolence, featured acclaimed author James McBride discussing his work with author and critic Marie Arana.
