Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, February 4, 2021
A new book, “Bluffton Anthology – a creek runs through it,” with dozens of short essays about Bluffton, collected by Fred Steiner, Ada Icon owner, is now on sale at The Inn at ONU.
“This collection brings together more than a dozen engaging writers whose own Bluffton experiences deserve retelling,” said Steiner.
“For anyone who grew up or lives in a small town, these stories need no further introduction,” said Steiner, about the book. “For people needing to have small towns explained to them, this is a great starting point.”
The book includes 190 pages and is listed at $24.95 plus tax.
