Hidden Heritage Buried Romance at St. Ann`s, Cape Breton Island For the walker and the armchair traveller, this is the compelling story of 350 years at St. Ann`s Bay, site of Capt. Daniel`s 1629 fort, the first Jesuit mission to the Mi`kmaq, and of France`s 18th-century Fort Dauphin. The daring Rev. Norman McLeod brought his Scottish pioneers to settle here in 1819 and Angus MacAskill, the Cape Breton Giant, lived and is buried at Englishtown. Overlooking it all, A. W. R. MacKenzie realized his dream of a Gaelic College on beautiful St. Ann`s Bay. Written with an enthusiasm that breathes these ghosts alive, this gorgeous book includes "A Walking Tour" at the Gaelic College and an Appendix of articles and letters by the principal historical figures. 176pages   .   $14.95   .   ISBN 1-895415-52-7   .   BRETON BOOKS
