A Land of Discord Always : Acadia from Its Beginning to the Expulsion of Its People, 1604-1755

Mahaffie, Charles

From Down East Books: " 'A Land of Discord Always' is the history of Acadia up to the time of the grand derangement. It tells how a unique society grew and prospered in an obscure corner of North America only to be crushed in a contest between eighteenth-century imperial superpowers. Peopled with memorable men and women whose exploits make fascinating reading, it is a narrative filled with the bravery and cowardice, the foresight and foolishness, and the design and happenstance that determined Acadia's turbulent history."
