Special to Iredell Free News

Local historian Steve Hill will sign copies of his new book, “In the Shadow of the Clock,” at GG’s art frames gifts from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, 28.

“In the Shadow of the Clock is a sometimes sad and other times happy tale about the heart of a small Southern town as it establishes its identity, manages its prosperity, and constantly struggles to maintain its relevance,” explained Hill, a retired high school teacher, principal, and Iredell-Statesville Schools administrator.

Proceeds from the sale of the book will go entirely to the Statesville Historical Collection, a storefront exhibit of photos, artifacts, documents, and memorabilia focusing on the history of Statesville and Iredell County.

GG’s art frames gifts is located at 101 W. Broad Street in Statesville.
