For decades, the quiet communities of Princes Lodge, Birch Cove, and Rockingham, on the Western shores of Bedford Basin, have been home to the hard-working commuters of Halifax, Bedford, and Dartmouth. It was not always so. For more than two hundred years, the area has had surprising links to wider events in Nova Scotia’s history: from the disastrous contact between the Mi’kmaq and Duc d’Anville’s ill-fated expedition, to the Acadian Expulsion and even to the American Revolution. The area has been home to a royal prince, two governors, and a premier of the province. In this lavishly illustrated history, local authors Sharon & Wayne Ingalls have traced the little-known story of how a wilderness was transformed into attractive leafy suburbs and have woven together many stories of the people, from all walks of life, who chose to make it their home.
