Award winning author and historian Catherine Gilbert will be giving a PowerPoint presentation on the war at sea at the Courtenay and District Museum. This lecture will discuss the WW II fort at Yorke Island, which was the focus of her first book, Yorke Island and the Uncertain War. Many images used in this pictorial presentation come from private collections of veterans and families of veterans, and so too, do the stories that go with them.
