Come from Away

  The book after that will most likely be one about the British Home Children which I have already begun to write. Somewhere in the next couple of years I want to research the path my husband’s grandfather took when, at the age of sixteen, he sailed from Poland by himself, came through Pier 21 in Halifax, then rode the train to Saskatchewan at the beginning of the twentieth century with plans to single-handedly clear the tangled bush and establish a farm—with nothing but five dollars in his pack. Oh Canada. So many stories!
