Huron - Grand Bend to Southampton
Sandra Orr
Boston Mills Press, Erin, Ontario
1993
The Story of the settlement and development of one of Ontario's unique geographic and economic regions, Lake Huron's stormy eastern shore, from Grand Bend in the south to Southampton in the north. Populated bby native peoples for thousands of years, and surveyed for the British Admiralty in 1822 by Henry Wolsey Bayefield, this strikingly scenic region became home to a diverse range of hard-working settlers and flamoyant entrepeneurs. A fascinating tale of eastern Lake Huron's determined port communities and their resident's struggle to survive all manner of pioneer hardships and lake-borne disasters.
Hard cover,
oblong (landscape) orientation, 8 1/4" X 10 3/8", 144 pages. Well illustrated with b&w photographs, map reproductions. Includes a bibliography.
Very near fine copy, no significant defects noted. Dust jacket is very near fine with just some small touches to the corners and a faint hint of shelf wear to the edges, else fine.
