The Gaspe Coast is more than just a place to live or visit. It is a living memory shaped by the wind, sea and time. Nestled between rugged shores and forested Shick Shock mountains lies a treasure trove of stories waiting to be told. From the master shipbuilder James Day to pilot Jacques de Lesseps' fatal plane crash, and Mary Pickett, a Titanic survivor, their lives are woven into the fabric of this region's proud history. In this collection of stories, meet the extraordinary individuals who once lived on the Coast, including artists, artisans, writers, adventurers, settlers, musicians, builders and storytellers. Each left a unique and lasting mark on the Gaspe and its people. Their stories, rich with courage, creativity, and resilience, remind us of the enduring spirit of Gaspesians. This book is a tribute to the fascinating history of the Gaspe Coast and to the people who helped to make it unforgettable.
