Vroman’s Bookstore: Local Author Day featuring m.a. Arana, Tom Jenkins, and Dennis C. Powell

September 1 @ 4:00 pm

Free
Local Authors Day Sept 1 Vroman's Bookstore Event

In Wing Stroke by m. a. Arana, we immerse ourselves in the gripping tale of revenge and change. This is more than a story of reclaiming a kingdom; it’s a desperate battle for recognition in a world that has yet to acknowledge its existence.

The Next Run: A UC Berkeley Student’s Rise to Major 60s Pot Smuggler by Tom Jenkins

The true story of a 60s Berkeley student who starts smuggling pot hidden in cars, graduates to planes, resorts to wading sacks through the Rio Grande, and ultimately finds himself heading the Colombian end of an operation using a twin-engine cargo plane to drop bales to waiting speedboats off the coast of Florida. At the same time, his Mexican contacts are sending him six-ton shipments transported in semis past a bribed customs officer.

Standing Over Home by Dennis C. Powell

Standing Over Home is written to help broken sons-young men who lacked the love and direction of a father figure-discover respect and learn missed lessons about love and protection that were never passed down to them during their formative years. Through the eyes of author Dennis Powell, division champion Dodger pitcher, Standing Over Home communicates metaphorically this picture of the importance of a father’s role to stand as protector and priest over his home and family.
