This is the story of how a long abandoned limestone quarry on the south shore of Manitoulin Island played a small, but significant role in Canadian history. For over one hundred and twenty years the story of the quarry has lived on in the recollections of the residents of Meldrum Bay, the town not far from the deserted mine site. The recollections of their mother's and father's, grandmother's and grandfather's combined with stories by historian Pierre Berton and Canadian canal historian, Robert Passfield bring fact and fiction together to bring light and life back to the quarry on the south shore of Manitoulin Island. This is the history of the short lived South Shore Quarry.
