Governor General’s Literary Award nominee Allen Smutylo’s new book, Gold of Another Kind – The Lost Legacy of Georgian Bay, is a historical, as well as a personal account of the once staggering quality and quantity of fur bearing animals, virgin timber and multitudes of fish that once thrived in Georgian Bay and vicinity. Beginning in the 1600s, the thrust of European ambition in the New World took on adventurous, bizarre, and tragic consequences. The pursuant plundering of the bay’s natural resources happened on a scale that would rival the voracity of any gold rush.  Copies of Allen's book will be available for sale and signing following the event.
