Join us for Book Discussions with author and anthropologist Ian Cosh!
Ghosts of Ortona: Reckoning with the Traumas of Canadian World War II Veterans.
The book has deep roots in Edmonton: Cosh began interviewing veterans of the Loyal Edmonton Regiment here more than twenty-five years ago, and their stories became central to the book. He'll talk about those encounters, the research and writing of Ghosts of Ortona, and what he learned from returning to these stories many years later, followed by a brief reading and plenty of time for questions and discussion.
Audrey's Books will be at the event with copies of the book, available for purchase. Don't miss out on the opportunity to a pick up a signed copy!
No registration required. For more information, please email [email protected].
The LERM Museum gratefully acknowledges support from Veterans Affairs Canada for this event.
