Autorenporträt

After arriving in Canada from the United Kingdom in 1968 with her teaching degree in her back pocket and a heart seeking romance and adventure, Barbara Ann Lambert vowed to stay with the teaching position she had obtained in Powell River, British Columbia for one year. Forty-five years later she remains-happily so. When she married Stuart Lambert, a local farmer, she found herself in a family of old time homesteaders and in a place where lives had changed little since the early days of stump farming. The Lambert kitchen was the hub of the community, and friends from those early years on the coast dropped in for glasses of goats' milk and her mother-in-law's famous white chiffon cake with strawberries. It was around the Lambert table that Barbara Ann first heard tales of Sunshine Coastal history.
