Meet the Author: Marianne Rafter
Join local author Marianne Rafter for an introduction to her newest work of historical fiction, Dancing On The Brink Of The World: A Novel Of Alta California.
In 1822, wind-swept dunes surrounded San Francisco Bay, a dilapidated Mexican fort, and an aging Spanish mission. First mate William Richardson surveyed that wilderness from his whaling ship. His heart racing from excitement and fear, he didn't know what to expect when he rowed ashore to request provisions. Then a chance meeting on this foreign shore blew away his old life. He had to make a choice. Go? Or stay on the brink of the world?
