The North Channel and St. Mary's River
296-page guide book
Andrea Gutsche, Barbara Chisholm, Russell Floren
Brimming with stories, folklore and eccentric frontier characters, the
North Channel and St. Mary's River book pulls you along on an engaging journey
of discovery, stretching from the ancient quartzite hills of La Cloche, west along
Manitoulin Island and the North Channel, to the St. Mary's River and the two Saults.
For centuries, Lake Huron's North Channel and St. Mary's River have provided an essential passageway,
first for native peoples and then for successive waves of Europeans. The footprints of Indians,
explorers, missionaries and fur traders, soldiers and settlers, entrepreneurs and scoundrels are ever
visible.
Over 125 sites, maps, and archival photographs highlight shipwrecks, abandoned forts, frontier
towns and hidden places.
