Official synopsis Publisher
The beautiful tale of the author coming to terms with, the place she feels most at home, will one day vanish into the Bay of Fundy.From the Preface: My mother wrote this book to both rediscover her own roots while being able to ensure her children and any possible grandchildren will know both the Geldart family roots and the history of the cottage. Most importantly, I feel my mother wrote this book to come to terms with the fact that one day, the place she cherishes the most may not exist anymore. Death is the natural end to all things, even the most lived and cherished must come to an end. Until such a time when the cottage is no more, this book will serve as our families “Red Book of Westmarch”, ensuring we all will know where we came from.-Michael Randall, 5th Generation Geldart
