Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Newfoundland in 1897: Being Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee Year and the Four Hundredth Anniversary of the Discovery of the Island by John Cabot
In this year, when the Colonies will be worthily represented in the pomp and pageantry which the great celebration calls for, and when, doubtless, they will be much in men's thoughts and in their speech, it seems not inopportune to present some account of England's first Colony, of which so little is known, but in which the feeling of loyal attachment to the throne and empire is, and has ever been, true and strong.
