Acadian Lives
in Cape Breton Island
The Cape Breton Acadian comes alive in visits with extraordinary people in a beautiful land. Here are 22 interviews by Cape Breton`s best chronicler from 27 years of CAPE BRETON`S MAGAZINE. From fishing life to the cooperative movement, from daily life to sorcery and celebrations, words and photographs offer an intimate portrait of this unique, little-known world. Told in their own words, these conversations are a marvelous introduction to the humour, passion, work life and heritage of Cape Breton Acadians. In English, with some French stories and songs. COLLECTED and EDITED BY Ronald Caplan with Rosie Aucoin Grace.
