Advertisement
Once upon a time, the only place you could get a divorce without your spouse's consent was Nevada. The catch: you had to live here for six weeks first. The Reno Divorce Colony became the destination for anyone needing to get un-hitched. Get the facts and the fiction during Writers' Wednesday at the Nevada Historical Society, March 13, at 5 pm. P.W. Borgman will be sharing some of her newest novel, THE BETTER HALF, and Sandra McGee will be talking about her authoritative history of the era, THE DIVORCE SEEKERS. Nevada Historical Society, 1650 North Virginia Street, Reno, NV 89503.
