In Rogues and Rascals Bob Kroll tells more than 200 true tales of our maritime ancestors, and introduces us to heroes, failures, and murderers who bring the everyday history of the Maritimes to vivid life. With tales from the 1700s through the mid-twentieth century, there are plenty of good starting points--a crime-ridden town on Prince Edward Island where residents take justice into their own hands; a daring escape from the Nova Scotia penitentiary; the tale of a New Brunswicker who smuggles tea for fun and profit; or a captain whose ill-timed fit of laughter lands his entire crew in prison. Interesting, and unusual, these historical anecdotes present a window into the feats and follies of Maritimers of the past. Bob Kroll has been writing for the broadcast industry for more than thirty years.
