Lumber baron, gold miner, politician, inventor, self-taught mechanical engineer, family man, generous benefactor, and candid diarist — E.D. Davison was a keen observer and an acutely enthusiastic participant in all aspects of life on the South Shore of Nova Scotia in the 1800s. He revelled in the new technology of steam engines, water-powered turbines, electricity, telephones and trains, while paying homage to the old way of life he knew growing up in Mill Village. Author Catherine Pross worked as a librarian at the Nova Scotia Public Archives. There she discovered parts of the diary of Edward Davison, her ancestor.

The McNeils and Mombourquettes established a joint heritage that first began in Cape Breton, then to Spryfield and it continues in Upper Granville in Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley. Stephen, our present Premier and the twelfth of seventeen siblings, was a mere eight years old when his father died suddenly. It thrust the family, led by his mother, Theresa, into some challenging yet rewarding times. Older brothers and sisters took on new roles and created a bond that continues to this day. The twelve chapters of this book describe this story and Stephen's rise in provincial politics.
