On Wednesday, November 5 at 6:30 PM, Tamworth resident Geoffrey Burke will talk about his grandparents’ missionary work in northern Alaska delivering healthcare to Native communities, which has been documented in the recently-published book Hospital and Haven: The Life and Work of Grafton and Clara Burke in Northern Alaska by Mary F. Ehrlander with Hild M. Peters.
This program will take place in person at the Cook Memorial Library and will not be recorded.
