Author Event – Craig Shreve

Event Website

As part of a Black History Month partnership between River Bookshop and Amherstburg Freedom Museum, we have invited author Craig Shreve for an event at the Amherstburg Freedom Museum on Feb. 8 at 1PM, for a talk and interview about his book The African Samurai. Set in late 16th-century Africa, India, Portugal, and Japan, it’s a powerful historical novel based on the true story of Yasuke, Japan’s first foreign-born samurai and the only samurai of African descent. Books will be for sale and Craig will be available to sign copies.
