$24.00The period was 1842 – 1849. The diary started in England where a bankrupt solicitor named John Rumsey from High Wycombe, was banished to America. The diary covered the sea voyage to New York, the canal boats to Lake Ontario and the steamers and barges to Canada.

Remembering the Rose
$20.00Remembering the Rose is the journey of a community: Stanstead the 45th parallel, where I call home. The more I learned the more questions I had.

Remembering the Rose captures pieces of this community’s soul. (94 pages of photos)
