A customer came in today asking for books by John Faucette. When I don't know an author, I usually ask: "Who's he ?" Then came today's advanced seminar on science fiction, and it gives me great pleasure to be able to pass this on to you, and especially to my former partner, Cynthia Parker, the Romance Queen of the East Coast, and still a partner in Silver Spring Books, Silver Spring, Maryland.
Our customer was Joseph Faucette, brother to the late John, and both are descendants of Rachel Faucette, a lady linked to Alexander Hamilton. John is considered a minor author, but was published in the famous Ace Double science fiction series. Not only is he an interesting individual, but you get double interest, when you learn Rachel's tale:
