Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Acadian Ballads: And De Soto´s Last Dream In 1710 the ancient poetical name Acadia given by noble French explorers to the beautiful Province of Nova Scotia was changed, but for purposes of poetry the name will forever endure. The history of the Province covers more than a century of intermittent French rule and nearly two centuries of continuous English rule and in both periods are to be found remarkable events and notable women and men. Some of the more striking of these events and the more notable of these men and women are commemorated in the following poems. The Tory ballads touch one of the most picturesque events in Anglo Saxon history, the migration of some thirty thousand of the people of what are now leading states of the American Union to the loyal "Province beside the Sea."
