| People of Donora, Volume 1 on sale at the Donora Public Library |
People of Donora, Volume 1, is a compilation of biographies of over 80 men and women who helped establish Donora as the “Home of Champions”.
Authored by Donora native and long-time educator Dr. Charles Stacey, the book is the product of research and memories and serves as the prelude to a series of publications highlighting those current and former Donorans who achieved status in the fields of science and medicine, community service, religion, education, business and industry, athletics and the arts.
While the names Musial and Griffey often top the list of the sons and daughters of the former steel town who made significant impact on the region and beyond, names such as Walton, Cerini, Wade, Epperson, Soroka and Law also deserve recognition.
The book will be on sale at the Donora Public Library which is the beneficiary of all sale proceeds. Copies may also be purchased on the library website, www.donoralibrary.com. The price of the book is $25. A $5 shipping and handling fee will be added for online orders.
