Chris King: Big Baddeck - A Little History from Cape Breton at the Old Sydney Society

175 Charlotte Street, Sydney



Chris King will speak at the next meeting of the Old Sydney Society. The title of the talk is “Big Baddeck – A little History from Cape Breton. Chris will also launch his book of the same title. Chris King came to Cape Breton in 1972 with his wife and young child. They settled in Big Baddeck, in an old farmhouse, no running water, electricity disconnected, barn falling down. And he wondered about the Scottish settlers who had cleared the field, what it was like for them, and how things were before they came. His “Little History” tells stories of how people have lived in Big Baddeck over the last 450 or so years.
