Now available from author Joel B. Kerr...
CAUGHT!The Travels and Travails of John W. Kerr, Fisheries Overseer, 1812 -1888
"In a style which I found similar to Canadian author Pierre Berton, Joel brings the story of his great-great-grandfather to life in this very wel written piece of Canadian history. Joel's use of additional historical facts presented in the footnotes as well as his added comments on some of the settings and locations as they are today truly makes this a very interesting and enjoyable read."
-John W. Marshall, Stoney Creek "Great book! Extremely well written...easy, fluid, friendly and interesting. I felt like I was sitting across someone's kitchen table listening to them tell an interesting story." -Robert T. Young, J.D. "Excellent read. Covers mostly Hamilton but also parts of Southern Ontario. It is an interesting read through the eyes of one of our first environmentalists who didn't always get along with the establishment in the mid to late 1800's." -Ted Arnold, Hamilton "Illuminating...Caught! is the inspiring biography of a fisheries overseer who faced barriers to his conservationist efforts." -Foreword Clarion Review |
