The latest book by island author Victoria Farnsworth, “Tossing To and Fro’: The Coming of Age,” is now available for purchase on www.amazon.com.

“It is about life on Bainbridge Island during the early 1960s, specifically my years in junior high school,” she explained. “During that time, we experienced the assassination of President Kennedy, the Columbus Day Storm, and the broadcast of the movie ‘The Birds.’ These are stories that islanders would find very interesting.”
