New Richmond, October 8, 2014

After a splendid launch in Campbellton, where we had no camera…

...I gave a talk in New Richmond about THE HERO (subtitled: 

Shell Shock, a Love Story) about WWI and its consequences.

Bobby Caissy and Bruce with Rev Doreen 

of the United Church, listened.

Pretty Delina brought her sister…

...Karen, from”away”, who bought all seven books of the Saga.

Intrepid Joan Dow sold for St Mary’s…

...and Gail and Murray sold books for their St Andrews.

Afterwards, many bought books in aid of St Mary 

Magdalen Anglican and St. Andrews United churches.

AGM of the RCAA, October 3, 2014

I was invited to talk to the assembled officers 

of the Royal Canadian Artillery Association at their AGM.

Before the splendid mess dinner, we assembled for drinks.

We then moved to dinner, as the 

Shawinigan military band played.

Down from the honour table stretched rows of officers, 

colonels and so on.

I was lucky enough at the Honour Table 

to sit next to a rare three star general, Stu Beare.

The next morning we assembled again.

Then everyone sat, and after an address by their commander, 

they listened to me!

In another coffee break, the officers loaded up with 

the military books in The Alford Saga: The Chaplain, 

The Gunner, and The Hero.
