Book Launch & Reading:
Linda Dorricott and Dee Cullon
Nanaimo Museum
April 28, 2012
1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Come to the Nanaimo Museum for the launch of editors Linda Dorricott and Dee Cullon’s new book The Private Journal of Captain G.H. Richards: The Vancouver Island Survey (1860-1862).
A rare personal glimpse into the history of Vancouver Island through the eyes of a sailor and surveyor who charted its entire coastline; this journal highlights many aspects of life on the Pacific coast – from First Nations’ encounters to the natural beauty of our island and beyond. With something for everyone, this book appeals to both academics and general readers alike.
There will be a short talk & reading from the book, and light refreshments will be served.
I’m still learning from you, but I’m enhancing myself. I actually love reading the whole lot that is written on your blog. Preserve the stories coming. I cherished it!
