Front cover image: Pownal Wharf, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, in 1849, watercolour by George Hubbard. The red ship’s hull is the remains of the Castalia, built in 1835 by James Ellis Peake at his Charlottetown shipyard. Following her demise in a storm in 1838, Peake converted the hull into an office and rigging loft. It was affectionately known as “Peake’s Ark.” Peake’s house is the brick building to the left of the “ark.” It still stands today. Courtesy of the Prince Edward Island Museum and Heritage Foundation.
