The history of the former sawmill community of Parry Sound is filled with scallywags, lawsuits and scandals long forgotten -- until now. This book includes the story of a prominent physician wrongly fired from a government position for dishonesty, as well as the reason why construction of the first waterworks system almost bankrupted the town. Then there is the tale of why the long-awaited arrival of the Canadian Pacific railway resulted in disharmony between residents and in numerous legal actions against the municipality.
