We are so excited to let everyone know we have completed the work on our special Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings/Cross Creek coffee table book just in time for holiday gift giving! All proceeds from the 100-page landscape publication will go to support the not-for-profit Friends of the Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Farm, Inc. which supports the needs of the MKR farm. The book features historic photos of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings and her historic home. There are also colorful photos of Cross Creek, both Lochloosa Lake and Orange Lake and a variety of the Cross Creek “critters” MKR wrote about.
Throughout the book you will find quotes from Marjorie about this “enchanted land” she so loved and wrote about. We have named the book: Cross Creek: The Enchanted Land of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings.
Orders made during the next three weeks can be mailed in time for the holidays. The price per book, including shipping will be $35.00. It will be available at upcoming events at the park such as our Annual Holiday Event from 5 to 7:30 p.m. on December 6th and upcoming Writer’s Talks in the spring for $30.00. It will soon be available on tour days at the park.
