Author Beverly Ann Behan put it all together to create "1812 in Niagara", a
fast-paced, exciting, romantic version of the War of 1812 told from the Canadian
side of the border (a screenplay/book increasingly referenced as "Gone with the
Northern Wind"). Why is Tecumseh the sexiest man alive in 1812? Are Laura and James Secord really the Brad and Angelina of Niagara?
Light refreshments to follow.
