Summary:
"Although Nova Scotia is Canada's second-smallest province, its history is diverse, complex, and steeped in hundreds of years of conflict. It was to this province's rocky soil that the two superpowers of the sixteenth century, France and England, transported their struggle for power and supremacy. It was here that an ancient and peaceful society, the Mi'kmaq, were exploited, corrupted, and persecuted. The Acadians, France's first colonists in the New World, also lost their experiment with neutrality and were forcibly deported. Nova Scotia was where the privileged Loyalists from the American Revolutionary War struggled to re-establish themselves, and where enslaved and oppressed Black Loyalists sought freedom. German Protestants and Scottish and Irish immigrants also landed here to escape tyranny and poverty. In vivid, accessible prose, award-winning author Harry Bruce documents, in text and image, Nova Scotia's complex and fascinating history. With updates and a new chapter from author Dan Soucoup."--Provided by publisher.
