About this title

Synopsis

Neshaminy is published twice annually by the Doylestown Historical Society in association with the Bucks County Writers Workshop. It features history, biography, fiction, poetry, memoir, and interviews, all with a focus on the rich literary and historical traditions of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Exclusives in this issue.• A recently discovered essay by JAMES A. MICHENER never published in full before. Michener, in the five-page typescript dated September 8, 1987, recounts his youthful years in Doylestown between 1907 (the year of his birth) and the early 1920s. • The first photographs of the Dorothy Parker House in Tinicum Township, Bucks County, since the 1940s. After the famous wit, writer, and poet sold the house in 1946, it went through a series of owners. It is now beautifully restored and is the property of a private owner.• “Knight of the Loyal Heart: The Strange Death of Ralcy Husted Bell”: Murder, suicide, or an accident? Once a prominent author, Bell in 1931 was found dead of a shotgun blast in his Centre Bridge, Bucks County, home where he had erected a booby-trap to thwart intruders.• The story and future of the famed Bucks County Playhouse.
