The May meeting of the Peterborough Historical Society will feature a lecture and book launch. Prior to emigrating to the Peterborough area in 1832, Susanna Moodie was associated with the Anti-Slavery Society in London and published two anti-slavery tracts. Speakers Molly Blyth and Michael Peterman, editors of a forthcoming book, Mary Prince and Ashton Warner: Two Slave Narratives Transcribed by Susanna Moodie, will discuss their research and discoveries. Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event.
