A Tale of Two Rivers - The Book

Sable River Stories and Tom Tigney Tales -
published by Friends of Sable River.

If you cross the Queens – Shelburne border at Granite Village and drive a little over seven kilometres inside Shelburne County, you come to the community of Sable River.

The book is attractive, with a colourful cover showing an aerial photograph of the Sable River, with its swinging bridge, taken by Linda Ross. It contains a gold mine of information and stories about early Nova Scotia, ranging from the first settlers to accounts of the various businesses that operated over the years.
The book will be available from the Whirlygig Bookshop in Shelburne.

Blue Island & Trafficking in Sheep

Blue Island - meine Nachbarinsel im Westen

Priest, an actor turned shepherd, ambles through the story of her part-time renunciation of Cape Cod summering and New York City loft living to settle in remote, idyllic Nova Scotia in the 1970s—a change that brought "richness and beauty" to her life. Prompted by nostalgia for her cozy childhood home, she makes a fateful series of impulse purchases in Nova Scotia: a 200-year-old house and then an entire island. A craggy wilderness of alders and brambles, Blue Island wears a menacing air, reflected in topographic titles like the gulch named Hell Hole.
