| description | Prince Edward Island, with its gentle blend of green and red, seems almost out of place in a Gulf dominated by wild cliffs and granite coastlines. Jacques Cartier was the first European to record his impressions of its tame, almost Old World beauty. Over the three and a half centuries that followed, many more travellers, adventurers, promoters, and settlers added their thoughts to a growing body of descriptive literature. From their observations, we can get a glimpse, if not of reality, at least of what Prince Edward Island was perceived to be and could become. | |
