Men in the Mines

A History of Mining Activity in Nova Scotia, 1720-1992

Coloured postcard with poem on the back: "Behold the site in which we dwell / The site of Marble Mountain / Kind nature richly blesses it / With many a stream and fountain / And like a lawn with verdant plots / Before us lies Bras D'or / Oh who would not delight to dwell / On this celestial shore?"

Date: ca.1910
