In December 1780, Ensign Prenties wrecked at present-day Margaree Harbour. After suffering, death, even cannibalism among those left behind, the survivors were saved by Mi'kmaq at St. Ann's Bay. Forty years later, Samuel Burrows and his companions wrecked near Fishing Cove. They crawled over steep, icy mountains, finally making it to Cheticamp and the rough shelter of pioneer Acadians- a shocking testament to the reality of early settlement on Cape Breton. These harrowing stories are true first-person accounts of excruciating survival and of humanity.
