Good Morning Everyone!
This is not poor house related but I wanted to announce it on here anyway. My next book, “Find Fortune, Documenting and Imagining the Life of Rose Fortune (1774-1864)” will be launched on Saturday, June 1st at 1 pm at the King’s Theatre in Annapolis Royal, NS.
Rose Fortune was an amazing woman who lived in the Annapolis Royal, Brinley Town and Digby Neck area of Nova Scotia. A survivor of early provincial racism, misogyny and poverty, Rose operated several of her own businesses and became known as the Police Officer of Annapolis Royal. Rose made her mark not only in Nova Scotia but also across Canada. Her descendents continue to make their mark all over the world.
I hope you can make it to the Launch which is being hosted by The Annapolis Royal Historical Association. A short presentation will be given and light refreshments will be served.

I can’t wait to read this one too! Sadly I’ll be out of province during your launch but will be sure to catch a reading of it later. Congrats Brenda!
