A little look at Lake Superior's maritime history
The CBC's Matt Fratpietro stopped by the Thunder Bay Museum this week to take a peek at its new exhibit, "Small Scale: Tall Tale," which features a collection of model ships ranging from canoes to tug boats.

Looking forward to presenting my paper “Bound Together at Sea: Convict Sociability and Life Aboard HMS Calcutta, 1803” at the GIS Sociabilités Workshop at The National Archives, UK, this week.

What forms of sociability did convicts experience during the voyage?

The workshop is organised by Marion Amblard (Laboratoire ILCEA4 & Pléiade, UGA), Jessica Nelson (The National Archives, UK) and Sabrina Juillet Garzon (Pléiade & ILCEA4, USPN).
