NEWPORT — The Newport Historical Society in Newport presents Rebecca Rule, with her delightful “That Reminds Me of a Story” program on from 6:30-8 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 14.

Rule has made it her mission over the last 20 years to collect stories of New Hampshire, especially those that reflect what’s special about this rocky, old place. She’ll tell some of those stores, especially the funny ones, and invite the audience to contribute a few stories of their own.

Rule is the author of eleven books, including “N is for New Hampshire”, “Headin’ for the Rhubarb: a NH Dictionary (well kinda),” “Live Free and Eat Pie,” and “Moved and Seconded: Town Meeting in New Hampshire,” as well as the children’s picture book, “The Iciest, Diciest, Scariest Sled Ride Ever.” For 10 years, she hosted “The New Hampshire Authors Series” on NHPTV. She currently hosts “Our Hometown”, also on NHPTV.

This program will be held at the Richards Free Library, 58 North Main St., in the ballroom, which is elevator-accessible. Light refreshments will be served.

This program is presented in conjunction with New Hampshire Humanities.
