Dave Gulden is a freelance writer from York, PA. He has authored four books and numerous feature stories in the local newspapers. His extensive research on baseball great Eddie Plank was recently published in SABR's The National Pastime. He also wrote the official York Fair Book, sponsored by the fair.

Dave and his York Fair Book were featured on the television show American Visions on August 24, 2007. Dave returned to the show to talk about his other book, "Forgotten Cigar Kings of York County". You can view his Fair Book appearance by clicking "Dave on TV".

He finished his last project, the birth and growth of the York County parks system, which will be available in the very near future.

In progress:
Notions, Potions, and Lotions... And Other Tales from the Hexbelt: Stories of age-old
hexes, murders, fear and hokum in what some call "the Hexbelt". From the 1700s up to the present, tales to tantalize and cause you to scratch your head. From medical quackery to the power of faith and foolishness.
