He is considered one of the best living Southern authors and tonight, we’ll have the privilege of having him in metro Birmingham. Dr. Sams will be making an appearance at The Alabama Booksmith, where he will be reading from his new book, Down Town.

They’ve doubled the size of their events area to accomodate the anticipated turnout for the event. Sams is also expected to reflect on his previous works and copies of Run With the Horsemen, Whisper of the River and When All the World Was Young will be available in paperback.

Those unable to attend the event may still purchase a signed copy of Down Town through the Homewood bookstore’s website.
