Haliburton House Museum

Thomas Chandler Haliburton

A short song and video describing Canada's first internationally recognized author. Small snarky tribute to the creator of Sam Slick, who used to be as famous as Huck Finn or Oliver Twist. Written after a summer season spent in his home, the Haliburton House Museum in Windsor, Nova Scotia. Video images taken from all over the internet.

Windsor, Nova Scotia

Windsor (2011 population: 3,785) is a Canadian town located in Hants County, Nova Scotia. It is a service centre for the western part of the county and is situated on Highway 101.
The town has a history dating back to its use by the Mi'kmaq Nation for several millennia prior to European discovery. When the Acadians lived in the area, the town was raided by New England forces in 1704. The area was central to both Father Le Loutre's War and the Expulsion of the Acadians during the Bay of Fundy Campaign in 1755. The town is the birthplace of ice hockey and also was the home of Canada's first internationally best-selling author Thomas Chandler Haliburton.
