Muskoka is a region of central Ontario much loved for its inherent promotion of summertime frivolity -- a popular destination for tourists and cottagers. The lake-studded area is also home to a remarkably varied and interesting history. This book explores stories that most people, residents included, likely know little about. Venture aboard steamships, into logging camps and elegant resorts, and through dense forests to the remains of ghost towns, to unearth tales so much a part of the Muskoka experience, they will only add to your enjoyment of the beautiful lakes and landscape.
