“We had dared to dream and we would do it again – tomorrow”
Meet the Morrison Clan, cousins, friends and neighbours
Follow Frank, his brothers, sisters, and buddies as they get themselves into hilarious, touching and sometimes precarious situations throughout Cape Breton Island. A collection of short stories recounting Frank’s memories of a Cape Breton childhood will have you growing up (and sideways) along with the zany Morrison clan. Exploding stills, questionable money-making schemes and the tragic loss of a ’55 Mercury! Grab a mug of home brew and settle back for an amusing trip from 1940’s St Anns through to Halifax in the 1960’s… you’ll even learn a little Morrison family history while you’re at it.
