"SYDNEY — Old Scottish tunes that have been so much a part of the history and culture of Cape Breton are in the spotlight in a new compilation book from Cranford Publications."

The link and the same thing found on a Google search gets me a dead-end. Seems their site is down at the moment. Will check back later. Thanks for the link.

By the way, thank you Nathan for all the wonderful Gaelic and Cape Breton stuff you post. I have family in NS (Halifax), and have been to Cape Breton. Once I retire, I will be there again, if not before. I love that island!

I'm so glad you appreciate it. The Gaelic culture that was preserved in Cape Breton was the culture of the Highland and Island Scots at the time of the Clearances and so is the rightful birthright of their descendants the world over. I am happy to share these things with such a marvelous community and am heartened by the positive response.

BTW, the original link is working again.
