Author to Speak on Nevada Post Offices Book at Dangberg Historic Park

Author Nancy Raven will speak on her book A Postal Journey: Discovering Nevada Through Its Post Offices at the Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park on Saturday, June 2, at 10:00 am.

Upon Nancy Raven’s arrival in Nevada, a friend suggested Raven travel the state photographing each town, which she refined to Nevada’s post offices. Raven’s quest took her to every corner of Nevada, with her photographs, her art work and a song becoming the book A Postal Journey: Discovering Nevada Through Its Post Offices.

Nancy Raven is an author, as well as an accomplished musician, artist, photographer and storyteller. Raven moved to Nevada from Monterey, California and currently resides in the town of Minden. Her work is not only known in Carson Valley, but throughout many western states as well.
