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.
