History Book Festival


Be sure to save the date for the Eighth Annual History Book Festival and discover a broad range of historical fiction and narrative nonfiction by both well-known and emerging authors. Join us in Lewes on September 27, 28, & 29, 2024. The History Book Festival is a first-of-its kind way to hear more than 20 best-selling authors of current non-fiction and fiction. We’ve selected writers and subjects to appeal to history buffs and readers ranging from the most serious to the more casual. Their discussions will be introduced by experts who will share insights and facilitate audience questions. Lewes — The First Town in the First State. Set in a town with unexpectedly rich history and architecture, graced with beautiful bay and ocean beaches, two lighthouses and a famous ferry, the festival is expected to draw people from up and down the East Coast. The schedule will ensure there’s time for you to carry the Festival out into Lewes’ historical, dining and shopping district. Visit our website to learn more.
