Product Description

Arrival of the Ship Hector


By Alexander Mackenzie.


Downloadable pdf. 8 pages.


This is a history of the arrival of the ship Hector in 1773, in Pictou, with its cargo of Highlanders, who disembarked in North America on 15 September, with winter rapidly approaching, and with little if anything in the way of supplies, knowledge of the countryside, or awareness of survival in the colonies. It is a story of endurance in the midst of great hardship and of the callous indifference of those who persuaded them to leave for the New World.
