I bought this book tonight at a local charity shop in my hometown of Cambridge, Ontario. It is a history book, part of a couple of series aimed at "pre-teen and young teenage readers" (The Battles of the War of 1812 and Adventures in Canadian History). I have read a couple of other books in these series, and I plan to read this one too before I pass it along-- though I'm not sure where/when that will be!


In celebration of the sesquicentennial, I have dedicated this year's bookcrossing activity to the reading and sharing of Canadian stories. I am registering this book as part of my Canada 150 project.

Since this book is about the War of 1812 and it has a chapter dedicated to the Battle of Stoney Creek, I thought that Battlefield Park would be a good place to leave it! It's in a protective bag, hanging from the gate of the fence around Battlefield House.

If you've found this book, thanks for picking it up and checking out its journal! If you're new to bookcrossing, welcome. We'd love it if you'd stick around with us a while. I really hope that you enjoy both this book and the whole bookcrossing experience!

This book was released as part of a couple of Release Challenges here on Bookcrossing-- the 2018 "Canada Days" Release Challenge and the 2018 "52 Towns in 52 Weeks" Release Challenge, in which Stoney Creek was Town #23 for me!
