Written by Kathryn Fawcett Lewis and illustrated by Sharon L Hicks, two Upper Sackville &#8216;gals&#8217; whose families have resided in the area since its earliest days dating back as far as 1765, the book was conceived when the two decided there was very little written record to be found on the origins, growth and development of the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a year and a half of research, study, communications with a number of long-time residents and former residents, writing, drawing, and editing, this comprehensive record is now ready to meet the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The book features a comprehensive record of the area, consisting of historical details as well as stories and other information about the people who formed the backbone of this once fully self-reliant rural community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Featured at the book launch will be the author and illustrator, as well as special guests Al Smith and Paul Bogaard representing the Tantramar Heritage Trust, David Mawhinney representing the Mount Allison University archives, and local historian John Carlisle. Signed books will be available for sale on site, as well as prints of some of the artist\u2019s work. The two-volume set of coil-bound books sells for $30 per set.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the general store to the blacksmith shop, from the families and the stories dating back generations, the history of the rural community known as Upper Sackville has been brought [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_tec_requires_first_save":true,"_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_tribe_blocks_recurrence_rules":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_description":"","_tribe_blocks_recurrence_exclusions":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[472,1579,558],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75887","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-local-briefs","category-weekly"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Local book will ensure history of Upper Sackville will be remembered &#187;
