| The Historic Churches of Prince Edward Island |
| H. M. Scott Smith |
Originally published in 1986, Historic Churches of
Prince Edward Island won the Award of Merit, from
the Prince Edward Island Heritage Foundation.
The book includes photos, floor plans, and
descriptions of pre-1914 Island churches, from
simple rural structures to the splendor of St. Peter’s
Cathedral in Charlottetown.
While not intended as a history text or a manual of
preservation, the author hopes that this book will
prove useful in conserving the past.
A beautiful pictorial rendition of the centre of many
Island communities - the local church.
