"Southern News, Southern Politics" with Rob Christiansen
2025-03-08 11:00 - 12:00 | McIntyre’s Books, 220 Market Street, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join McIntyre’s Books for this Author Event, “Southern News, Southern Politics: How a Newspaper Defined a State for a Century,” with Rob Christiansen on Sat, Mar 8, 11am-12pm. Discover the surprising history of North Carolina’s best-known newspaper.
BOOK SUMMARY

Here, Christensen tells the story of the N&O and how it helped shape modern North Carolina in complicated ways. It’s also the story of a family dynasty: four generations of the Daniels family owned and ran the N&O. They not only helped elect governors but also played an influential role in national American politics—family members served as political lieutenants to William Jennings Bryan, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, and Harry Truman.
Christensen takes readers from the N&O’s early days at the turn of the twentieth century as the militant voice of white supremacy to its denunciation by segregationist Jesse Helms for “selling out the South” in the 1960s and finally to its dwindling current fortunes. By telling the story of one important regional newspaper, Christensen shows how influence and messaging affect the politics of a state and a region for generations.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Newspapers are a tough business, and no one knows that better than Rob Christensen, who was chief political reporter and columnist at North Carolina’s capital newspaper, the News and Observer in Raleigh, for decades.

AUTHENTIQUE VIN AND THOMAS MEUNIER
Authentique Vin is an importer of family-produced French wines serving the Southeast US. Initially based in Carrboro, NC, owner Thomas Meunier currently lives in France with his family so he can be close at hand with the winemakers with whom he works.
“I started my journey in the wine world over 20 years ago in my native region of the Loire Valley. During 6 vintages, I worked at a biodynamic winery in Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil, growing Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc. This experience, deep in the heart of a winemaker family, shaped my philosophy of wine and kept me humble until this day. When building my portfolio, my quest has always been to find life in the wines I pick, this vibrancy that makes each bottle a revelation. I know through my experience in the vines that when you respect nature, it delivers in the bottle and makes each wine unique because it shows the sense of a place.
I have kept this understanding first while building my selection, finding true winegrowers that make no concessions with distinctive personalities while Organic certification is not a mandatory criterion to be part of my portfolio, even though 3/4 of my selection is, I firmly believe that only the organic path is the one to quality, delivering better grapes, offering the best natural balance of the fruit components. I share with my friends winemakers the belief that wine is made in the vineyard and that 90% of the vigneron’s job is done when you bring the ripest grapes in the cellar. I believe in natural wines made with native yeasts and no additives, but also that sulfites is not our enemy if used with minimal doses after the fermentation… I know each winemaker of my portfolio personally, have built strong ties and friendship with them, we grow together sharing this search for excellence by always questioning ourselves to do better.”

"The Book of Flaco" with David Gessner and Nina de Gramont
2025-03-15 11:00 - 12:00 | McIntyre’s Books, 220 Market Street, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join McIntyre’s Books for this Author Event, “The Book of Flaco,” with David Gessner and Nina de Gramont on Sat, Mar 15, 11am-12pm. Discover the story of Flaco, the Eurasian eagle-owl who escaped from Central Park Zoo and captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of followers from around the world.
BOOK SUMMARY

This is a parable of freedom, wildness, and our urban ecosystems. Flaco has been dubbed “the world’s most famous bird.” From the night in February of 2023 when vandals cut a hole in his cage until his death a year later in a courtyard on the Upper West Side, his is a story full of adventure and unexpected turns.
Nature writer David Gessner chronicles the year-long odyssey of Flaco and the human drama that followed the owl who captured the imaginations of New Yorkers and people worldwide. Though he’d spent his life in a cage, Flaco learned to survive in New York City by eating rats, squirrels, and birds. He was an immigrant coming from elsewhere to make it in the big city. Central Park, the island of green in an urban sea, was his new home territory.
Flaco’s urban adventure brought controversy, pitting those who felt he should be returned to the zoo’s safety against those who created the “Free Flaco” movement. The birding world was fractured over the ethics of the online sharing of his location that brought hordes of observers to view him each day. And his end—with a grim necropsy revealing Flaco had suffered a viral infection from eating pigeons and had multiple rodenticides in his system—serves as a Rachel Carson-esque warning about the harm we’ve done to our urban environments, inspiring the passage of long-sought legislation protecting urban birds and regulations meant to reduce the use of rodenticides in New York City.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
David Gessner is the author of thirteen books that blend a love of nature, humor, memoir, and environmentalism, including the New York Times bestselling All the Wild That Remains. Gessner is a professor at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, where he also founded the literary magazine Ecotone. His magazine publications include pieces in the New York Times Magazine, Outside, Orion, and many other magazines. In 2017, he hosted the National Geographic Explorer show The Call of the Wild.
Nina de Gramont is the author of the acclaimed Meet Me at the River and Every Little Thing in the World as well as the story collection Of Cats and Men and the adult novel The Gossip of Starlings. Her work has appeared in Redbook, Harvard Review, Nerve, and Seventeen.

BOOK SUMMARY

In 1927, eight-year-old Clara Harrington’s magical childhood shatters when her mother, renowned author Bronwyn Newcastle Fordham, disappears off the coast of South Carolina. Bronwyn stunned the world with a book written in an invented language that became a national sensation when she was twelve. Her departure leaves behind not only a devoted husband and heartbroken daughter but also the hope of ever translating the sequel to her landmark work. As the headlines focus on the missing author, Clara yearns for something far deeper and more insatiable: her beautiful mother.
By 1952, Clara is an illustrator raising her own daughter, Wynnie. When a stranger named Charlie Jameson contacts her from London, claiming to have discovered a handwritten dictionary of her mother’s lost language. Clara is skeptical. Compelled by the tragedy of her mother’s vanishing, she crosses the Atlantic with Wynnie only to arrive during one of London’s most deadly natural disasters—the Great Smog. With asthmatic Wynnie in peril, they escape the city with Charlie and find refuge in the Jameson’s family retreat nestled in the Lake District. It is there that Clara must find the courage to uncover the truth about her mother and the story she left behind.
