Description

The Frenchtown Rendezvous this year will be held at Assumption Church Parish Hall in Walla Walla, WA on October 8, 2016. Our speakers will be Michel Bouchard and Rob Foxcurran, co-authors of Songs Upon the Rivers, forthcoming from Baraka Books on October 1st. Bouchard's and Foxcurran's work focuses particularly on the Pacific Northwest, including Frenchtown. Our new venue is handicap accessible.

From Baraka Books: “In this seminal work, authors Foxcurran, Bouchard, and Malette uncover the important but buried history of French-speaking Canadien, Créole and Métis who inhabited the lands of North America before borders were drawn. By rereading old works and extracting what historiographers have invariably omitted, they propose a new historical narrative with an alternative model for the emergence of a Métis national identity in a continental framework."
