Stoddart Island, Nova Scotia (alternatively known as Emerald Island or 'East' by the locals) is a privately owned, tract of land located off the Southern coast of that Atlantic maritimes province, proximate to the small Canadian town Shag Harbour in Shelburne County, Nova Scotia. The island gained some measure of fame as the site of the lighthouse wherein author Evelyn Fox Richardson spent summers with her grandfather and wrote of this experience. Later, its waters off Toot's Point became a favorite haunt for Franklin Delano Roosevelt on boat crossings from his vacation home in Campobello Island, New Brunswick. ==References== * () Account of settlers * ()'' My Other Islands'', Evelyn Fox Richardson, Ryerson Press, 1960 * () Official Campobello Website * () FDR Campobello National Park * () Automated lighthouse now on site * () Sat Map/Photo link of Island and Area 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stoddart Island」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
