Book Talk: “The Quake That Drained the the Desert” with Mary Elizabeth Reynolds

Our friends at Friends of Sonoita Creek are co-hosting a book event with the Patagonia Public Library, and we wanted to pass it along.

Author Mary Elizabeth Reynolds will talk about her new book, The Quake That Drained the Desert, about a historic natural event that shaped Patagonia and Santa Cruz County as we know them today.

When: Saturday, November 7, 2026, 10:30 to 11:30 am
Where: Patagonia Public Library, 346 Duquesne, Patagonia, AZ

Books will be available to buy and have signed.

Coming from out of town? Make a day of it. After the talk, grab lunch at one of Patagonia’s restaurants, visit the shops, or take a hike on a nearby trail.
