Sable Island Stories: First Settlers of Sable Island

Presenting a complete timeline of Sable Island, back to the earliest records of its existence. As much as the island itself has changed over the years, its purpose and reputation have changed even more. Nearly everyone who came across Sable had a different perspective on what it was and what it could provide them. This historical retelling will peer at the island through the eyes of its many admirers and would-be-colonisers over the past few centuries, while also discovering why the island never truly hosted a settlement.
