Yankee Magazine's Mel Allen - Here in New England

Yankee Magazine's Mel Allen visits Gibson's Bookstore to present Here in New England: Unforgettable Stories of People, Places, and Memories That Connect Us All, a collection of stories he wrote across his 45 years an editor for Yankee Magazine!

From the time he published his first story in Yankee in 1979 to the day he retired as its editor in 2025, Mel Allen's writing has captured the unique essence of New England's and the people who call it home. Here for the first time, Allen has collected 45 of his favorite pieces, adding intimate new introductions and postscripts to put them in context.
