Some books stand the test of time and become classics -- this history of the Georgian Bay region is one of them. This edition includes a new epilogue by the author, the Bay's most-respected historian.
I skipped reading the epilogue; the stories in the book are mostly interesting but eventually it feels like a recitation of facts. It ended up getting pretty dry so I appreciated the odd story peppered in here and there.
One thing I learned, Georgian Bay was very rough on ships and there have been many wrecks over the past 200 or so years.
