LAST OF THE NICE GIRLS RECEPTION
IN JEMEZ SPRINGS
Sponsored by Green Phoenix Productions
Sunday, June 10, 2007
2-6 p.m.
Casa Blanca Guest House
Jemez Springs, New Mexico
 As Elizabeth McBride spent her last years in Jemez Springs — where her strawbale cabin resides — our first book-launching party will be held in the middle of Jemez Springs at the beautiful adobe Casa Blanca, whose gardens lead down to the Jemez River.
Attendees will be flying in from the UK, California and the East Coast! We hope you will join us — Green Phoenix Productions, Amador Publishers, the LAST OF THE NICE GIRLS editorial team, Elizabeth's friends, her son Ramon Berguer and her grandchildren will be there to greet you, to share Elizabeth's photographs, some home movies and memories of our dear Elizabeth McBride.
 A presentation donation will be made at this event to the A Room of Her Own Foundation.
Come join us for good books, interesting people, brilliant conversation, excerpt readings, great food, charming music by Albuquerque's female duo Charmed and some traditional Scottish music by Robert W McCallum.

We will be celebrating the release of two astonishing memoirs: EVA'S WAR new Second Edition and LAST OF THE NICE GIRLS from Green Phoenix Productions, an Imprint of Amador Publishers, LLC.
EVA'S WAR: A TRUE STORY OF SURVIVAL is the first of Eva Krutein's remarkable trilogy of memoirs, in which she recounts her family's experiences as German refugees at the end of WWII. This Second Edition includes a striking pictorial of Danzig/Gdansk pre- and post-war, assembled with help from a far-flung team of photographers. With over 20 million people now classified as refugees by the United Nations High Commission on Refugees, and additional millions internally displaced or stateless, Eva's message of shared humanity is as relevant today as ever.
Program to include:
• Presentations by editors Michelle Miller Allen and Zelda Gatuskin
• Harry and Adela Announce upcoming Amador projects
• Special guests, music, refreshments and art!
Amador Publishers is a humanist press dedicated to peace, equality, respect for all cultures and preservation of the Biosphere. Their entire diverse line of books will be available for sale, authors and editors will discuss their work. Amador's editor in chief, Harry Willson, will emcee.

This will be the second such event — in 2004 New Mexico Woman and B&N sponsored "A Desert of One's Own: Women Writing in New Mexico", a gathering of a dozen New Mexico writers, which was organized by GPP President Michelle Miller Allen. This year GPP is proud to officially join forces with New Mexico Woman and B&N for this event . . . which may become a "regular gig!" We promise a good time, great books and an intriguing dialogue!
