The Journal of Sedona Schnebly

"The Journal of Sedona Schnebly"        by Lisa Schnebly Heidinger @ arizonawriter.com
Sedona Arabella Miller Schnebly followed her husband west when their small Missouri town condemned his Methodist religion. Arriving in Arizona Territory in 1901, they planted orchards and hosted early tourists in what is now named Sedona.  Read about a fiercely private woman’s life that is by turns amusing and heartbreaking, and always fascinating.

FIRST EVENT!
Sedona Historical Museum Saturday
Sept. 16; reading at 11 a.m. followed by
visiting and signing 

Historical League member, Lisa Schnebly Heidinger is busy again. After writing all the stories of the 24 historic restaurants for Tastes and Treasures Volume II, A Storytelling Cookbook of Historic Arizona, she has captured the heart and soul of her great grandmother, Sedona Schnebly, in an audio book.

Historical Book from Carolyn Hartman




Cleaning up can often lead to fabulous discoveries. New League member Carolyn Hartman found this book with her father's memorabilia. Stanford Hartman M.D. was well-respected and loved Arizona history.

Originally published in 1884, this book was reprinted in limited edition in 1967. Recently Carolyn donated book copy #81 of 300 to the Arizona Historical Society Museum at Papago Park.

Accepting the book is Linda Whitaker with collections at the museum.
