In Big Rigs and Long Hitches: Freighting in the Old West,
Western Author Michael Zimmer will discuss his research for the novel The
Long Hitch, a Western/Mystery set in Corinne, Utah, and along the Utah to
Montana Road in the 1870s. Zimmer will share stories and period art on the
hazards and humor to be found along the Western trails, from cantankerous mules
and rowdy oxen, to prairie fires and Indian raids. The event will take place on
Tuesday, October 9th 2012 at 7 p.m. A
book signing will follow.
This event is part of the Brigham City Book Festival in partnership with the Utah Humanities Book Festival, a program of the Utah Center for the Book, a Library of Congress affiliate. The Brigham City Library is located at 26 E. Forest Street. For more information about this program or other festival programs in Brigham City please call Elizabeth at 435-723-5850.
