Presqu'ile: What Became of the Land

BIG NEWS! New BOOK!
"Presqu'ile: What Became of the Land"
Author:   Susan Brose

Susan says the book is a detailed history of the Government land, evolving through farmer squatter lots, to quit claim lots, to squatter campers, to leased camper lots and to cottage owners today. Each lot has a story. All surveys done at Presqu'ile are included, with lots of maps. There is original correspondence between the Government and residents as well as material about the origins of the park and its development.
The book has 460 pages with 1,130 pictures, the cost will be $45.00 each.
Contact Susan Brose at phone 905-396-1028 or
 email sbrose95@outlook.com or Susan on Facebook.
Note: Initially, the book will be for sale from Susan directly, and not in book stores.
