Author Ron Elliott of Nelson County will be in Elizabethtown for a book signing at 6:30 p.m. Monday at the Hardin County Public Library, 100 Jim Owen Drive.
His book “From Hilltop to Mountaintop: The Life and Legacy of One Iwo Jima Flag Raiser,” chronicles the life of Kentucky native Franklin Sousley, who was in the famous flag-raising photograph.
The idea for the book came from a trip several years ago when Elliott was in a military cemetery on a bluff overlooking Omaha Beach.
