Past Lane Travels: Where History and Travel Meet
Hey there, I’m Jessica, an award-winning historical fiction and suspense/thriller author who loves sharing my passions for history and travel.
I’ve discovered so many off-the-beaten-path historical sites while doing research for my novels that I decided to share these destinations with others.
(You’ll also see a lot of Gettysburg content — that’s because it’s my hometown!)
I hope you’ll tag along with me as I explore “life in the past lane” on this unique USA history and travel blog.
