The object of my attention is the Curious History of Canada's National Capital Region, and there is much to share. The facts are all there, but they simply form the basis for the more colourful parts of the whole story - the History you Were Never Told.

The story of Philemon Wright, pioneer of the first settlement in Canada's National Capital, written by his 4x great-grandson.
