JACK GRANATSTEIN TO SPEAK AT HURONIA MUSEUM
DINNER- May 2, 2014

Huronia Museum is delighted to have Jack Granatstein join the community for the museum's annual Heritage Dinner
on May 2nd, 2014 5:30 pm as guest speaker. In commemoration of the start of World War I, Jack Granatstein will
share his current work on the last 100 days of World War I, its losses and the unbelievable impact these days
had on Canada.
Jack Granatstein is a keeper of Canadian history. He writes on 20th Century Canadian national history--the military,
defence and foreign policy, Canadian-American relations, the public service, and politics. He has been described as
“the most prolific Canadian historian of his generation” with more than 60 titles to his credit. However, for many
Canadians, Jack Granatstein is best known for his television and radio work. He provided the historical
commentary for CBC-TV's coverage of the 50th, 60th, and 65th anniversaries of D-Day, V-E Day, V-J Day,
the 90th anniversary of Vimy Ridge, and repeated Remembrance Day ceremonies alongside Peter
Mansbridge.
This is a fundraising dinner to support the Huronia Museum, a not-for-profit charity which actively pursues heritage
preservation activities in the region. This event is a sit-down and served dinner, prepared by ELM catering along
with silent auctions and dessert auctions taking place.
Tickets are $75 with a $40 tax receipt available.
