The Real Story of a Notorious Novelist

By John Walters on Monday, August 20, 2001.

"Peyton Place" created a furor and set records for sales in the 1950's but its creator, Grace Metalious, had a short and unhappy life. Our guest, Robert Perreault, is an expert on the history of Manchester and the life of Grace Metalious. We'll hear about her childhood in Manchester, her life in Gilmanton, and her death in Boston. For more information about Robert Perreault's talks and tours, you can go to the New Hampshire Humanities Council web page at www.nhhc.org and the Manchester Historical Society web page at manchesterhistoric.library.net
