A Mind at Sea: Henry Fry and the Glorious Era of Quebec’s Sailing Ships
by Fry, John
CAD $24.99
Between 1856 and 1877 Henry Fry was the Lloyd’s agent for the St. Lawrence River, east of Montreal. Giant square-rigged ships, many owned by Fry, were built here. Fry was a colourful figure, who fought against the kidnapping of sailors and the dangerous practice of deck loading. He also battled depression. A fascinating glimpse into a bygone era.
