The Practical Research Techniques and Methods that Led to "Three Coins" and "The All-American Crew"

(NOTE: This presentation will NOT be recorded.)

The Bay Area Chinese Genealogy Group (BACGG) invites you to join them on Tuesday, October 11 at 6:30 p.m. for a Zoom meeting featuring author and historian Dr. Russell N. Low, whose passion for research, family history, and storytelling resulted in his recently published novels entitled “Three Coins” and “The All-American Crew.” 

Part I of this BACGG presentation series was presented by Russell on  July 16: "From Mui Tsai to World War II Heroes – A Multigenerational Tale of Courage, Resilience, & Diversity.”

Here is Russell’s description of what he will share with us in Part II:

We will explore the decades-long research process that led to my uncovering the previously unknown family stories that became the books "Three Coins" and "The All-American Crew."

Memorializing your family story is essential to preserve what you have spent years uncovering. You can create a book, photo book, documentary, or video. Choosing the right format depends upon your interests and skills. I will discuss how I wrote "Three Coins" and "The All-American Crew."

Finally, I will discuss the pros and cons of publishing your work by using traditional publishers vs. self-publishing.
