At the site of the 1777 Battles of Saratoga today. Great thrill to visit the place that has been called the "most decisive battle of American Revolution". youtube.com/watch?v=eVhLXq…

Great time viewing this historic site! Only downer. It was hot at 29 centigrade for walking the paths and trails around the battle locations. The Neilson House used by American officers and Monument to Benedict Arnold were my favourites.

The burial of Brigadier - General Simon Fraser and the significance of the 18th century battles fought here during the American Revolution. Fraser came to Canada with French Indian War and had been in action at Siege of Louisbourg and Battle of Quebec. youtube.com/watch?v=b53gEU…

Stopped at St. Croix Island International Historic Site to learn about first attempt at French settlement in Acadia in 1604 on St. Croix Island. After a difficult winter, colonists moved to Port Royal in summer of 1605 led by Pierre Dugua, Sieur de Monts, and Samuel Champlain.

On my next visit to Boston and Harvard in Cambridge, Massachusetts I'll have to visit the Harvard Book Store. 😊 Or, you can order online from them my book "Loyalist History of Nova Scotia: harvard.com/book/979867390…
