History in a Coffee Cup - Telling Historical Stories

About
Historical fiction transports readers to another time and place that is a combination of real and imagined. Authors walk a fine line between research and imagination and can make a story more interesting, intriguing or humorous than the actual events of the past. Join us to hear from Peter Burke, a doctor and successful writer of Western Australian historical fiction. Peter's novels have covered the history of pearling in Broome, CY O'Connor and the European Missionaries of the 1850s! He aims to engage readers in WA's unique history while provoking thought and laughter!FREE morning tea and chats after the talk.
