What folks are saying...
"Dr. Kane shared his wonderful presentation of Woodstock a 50 Year Retrospective with our students and community members at York County Community College. We really enjoyed the rare opportunity to hear his stories of the amazing photos of the Woodstock audience, the talented photographer who captured this iconic cultural moment and how he came to write this book. It was fun and informative, and the best part was that sparked a lot of discussion about people's personal memories of Woodstock and the era. Thank you John - we all greatly enjoyed it! "

"John drew a group of patrons into the library on a beautiful Saturday in June, including more than half a dozen people who were in attendance in Bethel in 1969. He knew just how to balance his expertise and intimate knowledge of his material with the opportunity for those who experienced it first hand to share their stories, too. The photographs are stunning, and John knew just how to engage our audience to create something special. We were lucky to share the time with him."
