What a better way to celebrate Valentine’s weekend than with the following course of true love with “the first couple”? No, not President Obama and Michele, but Adam and Eve, who reveal their innermost feelings, thoughts, and insights through entries in their personal diaries. Treat your sweetie and come visit the Onondaga Historical Association on Sunday, February 15th at 2:00pm for a valentine from one of America’s greatest humorists, Samuel Clemens’ also known as Mark Twain; a presentation of the heart warming and witty “The Diaries of Adam and Eve”. Extracts from “Adam’s Diary” were first published in “the Niagara Book”, a souvenir publication sold at the Buffalo Worlds Fair in 1893. The setting of Eden is near Niagara Falls, NY with reference to Tonawanda, NY. “Eve’s Diary” was written in 1906, and the two works were published together in one volume for the first time in 1931.
