"Argyle Shore is a small community on the beautiful South Shore of Prince Edward Island overlooking the Northumberland Strait. It was named in the early 1800's by settlers who came from Argyle Shire, Scotland. In earlier days, Argyle Shore was a very self sufficient community with its own stores, post office, lobster factories, forge, school, and hall. It is a beautiful community; not just because of the amazing scenery and beaches, but, more so, for the robust community spirit and great people that call it home. This history of Argyle Shore is an attempt to record some of the history and spirit of this community." -- back cover
