OUR STORY
About the Publisher
Peace River Publisher
Peace River Publisher is a play on our family names. Pace, an old Virginia name, comes from the Latin word for peace. Reed means “reed” and echoes real rivers: a reedy red river in England, the red and reedy rivers in the United States, and the Peace River in western Canada.
We are a family of storytellers with roots stretching across the American story, from early settlements to immigration, from complex Southern histories to the long journey west. Peace River Publisher carries this layered heritage forward with books that speak to quiet strength and honest reflection.
Stories that endure.
A quieter, more thoughtful tomorrow.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Dorothy Reed Pace
Dorothy Reed Pace was born at the meeting point of the greatest generation and the baby boomers, and has spent a lifetime crossing the American story from the West Coast to the South and back toward the western sunshine she loves. Married to a Vitenam veteran, she is a family historian at heart, drawn to the quiet strength found in ordinary lives. She wrote Before We Close Our Eyes for anyone whose nights feel long, in the certainty that morning light always returns.
