MacKay, Donald. SCOTLAND FAREWELL: THE PEOPLE OF THE HECTOR.
Natural Heritage, Toronto, 2001, 4th printing.
246 pp, 8vo (8 1/2" H), soft cover. ISBN 1896219128 B&w photographs, reproductions, maps. "This is the story of the Highland Scots who sailed to Pictou, Nova Scotia, in 1773 aboard the brig 'Hector'. These intrepid emigrants came for many reaso ns: the famine of the previous spring, pressures of population growth, intolerable rent increases, trouble with the law, the hunger of landless men to own land of their own. Upon arrival at Pictou, after an appalling storm-tossed crossing, they f o u nd they had been deceived. The promised prime farming land turned out to be virgin forest. Only the kindness of the Mi'kmaq and the few New Englanders already settled there enabled them to survive until they learned how to exploit the forest s an d clear land. But survive they did, and their prosperity encouraged shiploads of emigrants, many fellow clansmen, to join them, making northeastern Nova Scotia a true New Scotland." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Ext er ior - light wear at bottom of spine, light edge wrinkling and a very soft creases on covers. Very Good
