Bestselling author Jean M. Auel's epic six-book Earth's Children series transports readers back in time 30,000 years into the world of the earliest humans and their struggle for both survival and civilization.
The first book, Clan of the Cave Bear, became a literary sensation when it was published in 1980, earning fans because of Jean's meticulous research as well as her engaging storytelling.
Jean Auel will visit the Skyline Country Club in Tucson, Arizona on March 1st to appear at the 16th Annual Brandeis Book & Author Luncheon, and that gave me a chance to ask her about the inspiration behind her work....
