"the strength and centre [of A Long Journey] is the individual stories. Procter has structured the work as a framework for them." If you missed Joan Sullivan's full review in The Telegram you can read it here.

Join us for a live discussion of an important chapter in our province’s history: the story of residential schools in Labrador, and their effect on Indigenous co...mmunities, past and present. Kayla Burry is the Archivist with the Healing & Commemoration Project at The Rooms provincial museum, and Andrea Proctor is the author of A Long Journey: Residential Schools in Labrador & Newfoundland. And we want you to join the conversation! Ask questions in the Comments below, and we’ll do our best to answer them at the end of the show.

Ursula Kelly's 'The Foresters' Scribe' is listed alongside some great Remembrance Day reads from Atlantic Books Today.

Tune in tomorrow evening (Tuesday, Nov. 24) for a live conversation with Andrea Procter and archivist Kayla Burry about the history of residential schools in Labrador and Newfoundland. The livestream will be available on The Rooms Facebook page, and on the CBC Newfoundland and Labrador Facebook page at 7 p.m. NT (6:30 p.m. in most of Labrador).

Tune in to CBC's On The Go this afternoon to hear Ursula Kelly chat with Ted Blades about "The Forestes’ Scribe," the first comprehensive account of the Newfoundland Forestry Companies as told through the First World War letters of Regimental Quartermaster Sergeant John A. Barrett.

This is a story that is crying out to be told. Check out NQOnline for a Q&A with Ursula Kelly about 'The Foresters' Scribe.'

Some fall Atlantic books that give you pause for thought! ‘Voices of Inuit Leadership and Self-Determination in Canada’ makes the list.
