Ann-Narie Petty-OShea from Whangarei District Libraries

Zana Bell will give a talk about the Reverend Norman McLeod who spearheaded a migration of his Gaelic-speaking community, first to Nova Scotia, Canada then to Waipū and the Whangārei Heads.

Zana travelled to Scotland to learn more about this firebrand minister and impassioned preacher, who had a way of stirring up both adoration and dissent wherever he went and who could inspire entire communities to up sticks and move across the world. Twice.
