War of 1812 Shipwreck Booklet Available...

The book launch for the new publication prepared by Jonathan Moore for the series sponsored by the Cataraqui Archaeological Research Foundation took place in Kingston yesterday. Jonathan gave an excellent, richly illustrated presentation on the War of 1812 Shipwrecks in Kingston, on which he is a leading authority. His new book (ISBN: 978-0-9783359-2-2) was available for sale at C$ 7-95. The 30 page soft-cover work has many wonderful images that expand understanding of Kingston's local shipwrecks of the period concerned.

Copies of the book will be available from CARF (call 613 542 3483) at 611 Princess Street, Kingston, and probably also the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at 55 Ontario Street.
