This site is dedicated to historical reflection of the community of Boisdale, Cape Breton and surrounding communities. We've learned that in all these smaller communities is where the pre-dominently agrarian people spent most of their lives; at least until the advent of cars and better roads.
Over the years since our inception in 1997, we've paticipated in a variety of walking historical tours. We hope eventually to include virtual tours for the benefit of our readers. We try to walk in the same path as our ancestors.
