Saving Shallmar with James Rada at George's Creek Library

James Rada, Jr. is an Amazon.com-bestselling author who writes non-fiction history and historical fiction. Join us for an evening as Rada speaks on:

"Saving Shallmar" As fall turned to winter in 1949, the residents of Shallmar, Maryland, were starving. The town’s only business, the Wolf Den Coal Corp. had closed down, unemployment benefits had ended and few coal miners had cars to drive to other jobs. When children started fainting in school, Principal J. Paul Andrick realized the dire situation the town was in and set out to help.
