Excerpt from List of Commissioners to the General Assembly, 1905 You need hardly be reminded that in Kingston your feet are on historic soil. The names of its adjacent islands recall many a page of exploration, trial and adventure, and its forts and towers are worthy of a passing glance. As you look out over the harbour you see part of the twenty-mile-wide source of the St. Lawrence and the lake sentinels of the 1000 Islands. Downwards through these is lands, upwards along the Bay of Quinte, and northwards through the Rideau Lakes are trips c unusual beauty. These and other points of interest are mentioned at the end of this booklet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
