Description

On the heels of the best-selling Book One, Cape Breton’s Christmas — Book Two is a rich collection of stories and memories from nearly fifty Cape Bretoners, including Clive Doucet, Jess Bond and Sheldon Currie. From a Christmas tree in the coal mine to Christmas on the battlefield, from joyous memories to reminders that break the heart, celebrations in Cape Breton and far from home — Cape Breton’s Christmas—Book Two is a gift of the season’s renewal and the island’s generosity and strength.
