PARIS – Four authors will share their stories and experiences in writing and publishing and sign copies of their books during Old Home Days weekend, June 1-2.

Eva D.Ward of Brownfield will be on hand from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Friday, June 1, to discuss her book “Calvin C. Waxwing,” a children’s story about the adventures of a bird that falls out of a nest and is rescued by young children. The story is true and took place in 1978. Eva’s daughter, Deborah Ward York, the illustrator, will also be at the library.

Between 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. June 2, Sayward Lamb will showcase his book of hunting and fishing stories. These tales cover experiences of the author, his relatives and friends over more than a 60-year period. The book, “Deer Tails & Other Tales,” chronicles events, often humorous, and sometimes at the expense of the author. Lamb has spent many years in the woods, on lakes and streams, mostly in Maine but sometimes in Newfoundland, Alaska and Florida.

A Maine native, Lamb is retired and has homes on North Pond in Woodstock and in Florida.

Also from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Judith Green will be on hand to share a collection of her stories set in western Maine. In the first story, a village of gossips solves a mystery. In other stories the sleuthing revolves around a high-school English teacher coming up against an ancient family tragedy, the connection between an old tramp and a silent high-school girl, a stolen cat, an elderly mother in a nursing home who knows something she can’t manage to tell, and other everyday Maine conundrums.

Green is just retiring as director of adult education for Oxford Hills and Buckfield, after 28 years with SAD 17. She looks forward to more time for writing. She has written 25 books for adult new readers and is currently working on a novel in which her Maine high-school sleuth solves a crime while hiking across England with her husband.

From 12:30 until 2 p.m., Harry L. Harper, M.D. will sign copies of his recently published work, “A Recall of the Fifty Year History of Stephens Memorial Hospital.” Harper is one of the eight doctors who started the hospital in 1957. His book is a recollection of facts and events, as he remembers them, pertaining to the hospital from that time to today, when the hospital is celebrating its 50th Birthday. His previous book is titled “Dr. Iodine.”
