Description: "It doesn't matter where you live...Letters to the Editor is a rich portrait of your neighbors and your town, a living love letter to the spirit of community". -- Times Leader, Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, on the stage version of Letters to the Editor

The voices of citizens you won't meet in any history textbook here ring true as they summon forth, through 200 years of letters to one town's newspapers, the most memorable moments in American history and the passions they engendered -- on every issue from people in politics, adultery and teen pregnancy, kids and pets, even the age-old battle of the sexes. By turns hilarious and contemplative, here is a book so charmingly nostalgic that it will effortlessly evoke in readers fond memories of home and family, friends and neighbors, their hometowns.

Letters to the Editor, like its beloved theatrical cousin, Our Town, is both specific and universal. Bloomsburg is the "spokestown" for the American experience. Read it, and let America give you a piece of its mind.
