What's New At donnellys.com
New Book!! LUCAN: Home of the Donnellys By: Terry Culbert
Terry
Culbert's love of his Irish roots spawned this unusual look at the
Irish-Canadian village where he grew up. Lucan, a half-hour north of
London, Ontario, suffered a violent beginning with the massacre of five
Donnelly family members in 1880. Those brutal slayings went unpunished.
The first third of Culbert's book is Donnelly related, with many
stories never published before. The retired television news journalist,
photographer and artist has filled his book with dozens of
illustrations and photographs.
The compilation of short stories not only includes the Donnellys, but
the village commerce, village life, sports, and music from past to
present. Many of Culbert's stories focus on interesting characters and
events that have contributed to Lucan's rich history. Two and a half
years in the making, Lucan: Home of the Donnellys is an engaging
collection of Canadiana.
