4:00 PM to 6:00 PM

Join authors and marine historians John MacFarlane and Lynn Salmon for a book signing and illustrated talk! Their groundbreaking work, Around the World in a Dugout Canoe tells the real story of a little-understood character—Captain John Voss—and his cedar canoe. In 1901 Voss sought to claim the world record for the smallest vessel ever to circumnavigate the globe. It is an enduring story of courage, adventure, and at times, sheer luck. Admission by donation. Books will be available for purchase.
