HISTORY AND MYSTERY IN NORTHERN ONTARIO

PREVIEW MY BOOKS

NEW BOOK BY WILLIAM E. MCLEOD

Welcome to my website and thank you for your interest in my books. They were a lot of fun for me to research and write. When I began, I had no idea that there would be enough material for one book, let alone four. But here they are!

I would love to hear from you, your particular interest in the town of Chapleau, the Chapleau Game Preserve or any of the things I wrote about. Feel free to call, write or click the email link on the Questions and Comments page, where I'll be sharing our discussions.

My phone number and mailing address are on the order page.
