Small Town Teacher Pens Small Town Drama

Within the pages of Kenneth Lippincott's new book, Restoring Blair House, ($24.99, paperback, 9781545615225; $41.99, Dust Jacket, 9781545615232; $9.99, e-book, 9781545617380) readers will find an inspiring Christian novel brimming with adventure and some hard-to-swallow truths. In this second installment of the Rock Creek Valley trilogy, a prodigal son returns home to restore the Blair House, his dilapidated childhood home, during an extensive and divisive highway construction. He finds that the home controls valuable water and mineral rights, and this shakes the small town into a frenzy. At the center of the novel, the author poses the question: how far would one go to get a second chance . . . and at whose expense?

"School reorganization and interstate highway construction often decimated small towns, which then struggled to recreate themselves," states the author. "Some sought God, others went their own way, and powerful families wielded power, but churches could bring healing."

Kenneth Lippincott worked an educator in small towns for forty-three years. He worked to bring people together and was twice selected as Jaycee's Man of the Year. He holds a Master's Degree in Education Administration in Community Education.
