Our February Virginia Voices author, Kim Murphy, presented a program on Passionate Victorians.

A question and answer period followed the talk.

Audience memebers had an opportunity to examine some Victorian valentines, portraits, and books.

A book signing was held at the end giving the audience an opportunity to buy Mrs. Murphy's novels, Promise & Honor and Honor & Glory and to talk to the author.
