Sean Conway will stop by South Algonquin Public Library this month for a special author talk.

Looking beyond the game to the players, families and community around the team, the library says the book captures a memorable period in Madawaska Valley history.

The author talk, scheduled for Sept. 26 from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. at Madawaksa Hall, is part of Ontario Culture Days and is open to everyone. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing.
