Interesting. When she did this exact thing at Plimoth, it was only $25 for 
members.... I suspect the rest is fundraising for that society. She has been 
very public this past six months with lectures. I know of at least six in 
the NY/NJ/PA/CT/MA areas.

She's pretty nice. Her lecture style is amenable.
The book?? It's...okay. Not stellar,but good for people to start somewhere.
