If you want to understand the people of Cape Breton and why they are different from all other Canadians, this is your book!Sailing around the entire Island in a home made boat, Cameron encounters people from all walks of Cape Breton life: farmers, fishermen, loggers, miners, Micmac Indians, politicians, journalists and many more. Every one has a tale to tell. All enlightening, many very funny and many heart-tugging. Hard to find, but worth it! (I had to go to Baddeck to get it!)

A wonderful book about Cape Breaton. As a "mainlander" I have gained a new respect for this beautiful island. It's not just a travel story, it's a story of a group of amazingly strong people.

Anyone who enjoys sailing, geography, nature and down-to-earth people will enjoy this book. I have never been to Nova-Scotia and, yet, after reading this book, I feel I can smell the scent of the air over there, I can picture the numerous coves strewn along its rugged shoreline and, best of all, I get this sense of having been there and having met its inhabitants. A truely magical book
