Summary:
"It's 1773 and twelve-year-old Dougal Cameron and his whole family are set to sail away from their Scotland home forever. When tragedy strikes, the family must decide whether or not to make the trip without Dougal's father. Once the ship departs, Dougal is drawn to the haunting sounds of the lone piper on-board. (The instrument, while still illegal in their homeland at the time, was brought aboard to keep spirits up.) When a violent storm knocks the Hector two weeks off course, Dougal's dream of becoming a piper has to take a back seat to keeping his three little sisters alive. Author Jacqueline Halsey spares no detail in this inspiring story of the brigantine that brought the first Scottish immigrants to
Nova
Scotia
, focusing on its difficult journey, and the strong-willed and determined individuals who risked it all to call
Nova
Scotia
home."--From publisher.
