Historians Talk: David Wilson in Toronto; Jim Phillips in Whitby.

 

 

My good friend David Wilson, General Editor of the Dictionary of Canadian Biography and prolific author on Canadian, American, and Irish historical matters, speaks Friday at Toronto's Yorkminster Park Speakers Series, a well-attended public lecture series with a commendable interest in things historic and Canadian. More info here.

What's the good of having a blog if you can't promote your friends? Because my other good friend the legal historian Jim Phillips speaks in Whitby, Ontario on Monday, March 6, about his forthcoming book on the scandalous divorce trials of the Whitby Campbells.  Details from the Whitby Historical Society here.
