New Work Makes Substantial Contribution to Knowledge of the First World War

To mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War, the latest issue of the Thunder Bay Historical Museum Society’s journal, Papers & Records, is devoted to Northwestern Ontario’s experience during the conflict.

Original work by alumni, current students, and faculty members within the Department of History and Northern Studies reflect the contribution - both at home and abroad - of a regional community to an event that help shape the twentieth century. This issue is also the last to be co-edited Dr. Peter Raffo.

Copies can be purchased at the Thunder Bay Museum and will also be available at the Symposium on the First World War being held on the 8 November.
