A FORK IN THE ROAD - Wayne Wright ...the work of a storyteller, not a professional historian. History, my learned friend Dr. Edward MacDonald assures us, concerns itself
with the story, not just the facts. All of us live by our myths and illusions: our story is the way we get by. “It’s my story,”
the accused man said, “and I’m sticking to it.” And, being a project linked to the new millennium, this book would be near-sighted if
I didn’t tell the story of Wilmot from the very beginning -- not just the last few centuries since the coming of the white man.
