The PEI Scottish Settlers Historical Society is seeking pre-orders for their reprint of Souvenir Booklet of the Celebration of the Landing of the Scottish Catholics on Prince Edward Island in AD 1772 and After.

The reprints are being sold for $12 per booklet or $20 for both. If you order only one, please note whether it is to be the local 64 page edition or the Boston 84 page edition.
