The Lewes Public Library says Newcott will be joined by Maribeth Fischer, executive director of the Rehoboth Beach Writers Guild and author of three novels, for a conversation about the book, the inspiration behind it, his travels and the topics he explored.
In Divided We Stand, Newcott chronicles a journey through small towns across the United States and Canada, exploring issues including abortion, policing, immigration and guns while searching for common ground among people with differing views.
Registration is required for both in-person and online attendance, says the library.
