Author Event – The Acadians: A People’s Story of Exile and Triumph by Dean Jobb
One of the darkest events in Canadian history, Le grand derangement, is replete with the drama of war, politics and untold human suffering. Award-winning author Dean Jobb has written a dramatic and compelling account. The year 2005 marks the 250th anniversary of the expulsion. This book is a bridge across the centuries for the descendants of a founding people of this nation, whose courage and resourcefulness still resonate in modern-day Acadie.
Please join us for a reading and book signing on Wednesday, July 13th at 7:00 p.m. at St. Paul’s Anglican Church Hall, 125 Main St., Sackville.
Our thanks to the Tantramar Heritage Trust for co-sponsoring this event.
