Description

Can you imagine a piece of the universe more fit for princes and kings?

The beautiful Mira River is just such a place, meandering for more than thirty miles through Cape Breton on its journey to the Atlantic Ocean. For Allister MacGillivray and many Nova Scotians, particularly those who grew up around Cape Breton Island, the Mira is also a symbol ... of the sweet memories of youth, the warmth of family gatherings and the dreams of going home again.
