By Blodwen Davies

"Saguenay, 'S ginawa', the River of Deep Waters" is an evocative exploration of one of Canada's most majestic and mysterious waterways. Blodwen Davies delves into the rich history, folklore, and natural beauty of the Saguenay River and its surrounding regions in Quebec. From the ancient legends of the indigenous peoples to the arrival of European explorers and the establishment of early settlements like Tadoussac, the book paints a vivid picture of the "River of Deep Waters."

The narrative guides readers through the rugged landscapes of the Laurentians, describing the awe-inspiring cliffs of Eternity and Trinity and the deep, dark waters that characterize this unique fjord. Davies combines historical accounts with descriptive travelogue, capturing the spirit of the wilderness and the enduring allure of the Canadian North. "Saguenay, 'S ginawa', the River of Deep Waters" serves as both a historical record and a tribute to the sublime power of the natural world, making it a valuable work for those interested in Canadian heritage, geography, and the timeless beauty of the Saguenay region.
