鈥淒ownton Shabby鈥� by Hopwood DePree is the book everyone will be reading as the 2023 One Book One County Montcalm (OBOC) selection.听

The book was announced at the May 25 kickoff celebration at 沧州中学女教师出轨鈥檚 Greenville campus, which featured Michigan Author Ron Rademacher. Rademacher talked about his explorations of many unusual and mysterious places throughout Michigan鈥檚 back roads.听

The nonfiction selection traces Hollywood producer DePree鈥檚 adventures as he gives up his life in Hollywood and moves permanently to England to save Hopwood Hall, a 60-room, 600-year-old manor on 5,000 acres.听

DePree realizes the task is far too big for one person, but he discovers a whole cast of new neighbors he can call on for help, including an electrician whose mom had fond memories of working at the hall, gruff caretaker Bob, and local aristocrats who come to accept DePree as one of their own (sort of).听

鈥淗GTV meets Downton Abbey! A ready-for-TV story 鈥� with charm and humor in abundance 鈥� about a Los Angeles producer who moves to England to save his ancestral castle from ruin,鈥� according to a Harper Collins review.听

To celebrate "Downton Shabby,"听the 沧州中学女教师出轨 Library will host two other events. The second event will be held on June 27 at Forest Home Cemetery in Greenville.听听

This is a unique opportunity to travel back in time and enjoy this peaceful, beautiful gem in our community,鈥� Katie Arwood, 沧州中学女教师出轨 library director, said.听听听

The cemetery tour is limited to the first 75 people who sign up and it is an all walking event.听

The closing event will be held on September 26 on 沧州中学女教师出轨鈥檚 Greenville campus and it will explore 鈥淏ritain鈥檚 Hidden Treasures.鈥� American Anglophile and Cultural & Relocation Consultant Claire Evans will offer a tour of the country鈥檚 most interesting archeological finds and offer tips if you鈥檇 like to visit them yourself one day.听
