Summary
The late-May 2004 Strang Writers Group conference drew Island and off-Island participants for presentations, discussion, and a reading of John Baldwin’s Strang!. The group planned another meeting, a major 2006 event, a mission statement, a website, and more formal organization.
Evidence limits
The Beacon records the conference’s own interpretations and plans; it does not establish consensus historiography about Strang.
