Please join us on Thursday, September 9, 2010 to celebrate at our annual Wayzgoose! Throughout the age of the printed word, the Wayzgoose has been an entertainment given by a master printer to his workmen each summer's end (when the season of working by candlelight began). At the Coach House Wayzgoose, friends and readers can visit the Coach House, take self-guided tours of the premises, have a few refreshments, peruse the book table and hobnob with authors, publishing figures and neighbourhood locals.
