About the authors
Ivan Fraser, born and raised in Nova Scotia, shares the beauty of Nova Scotia through his art and photography. Ivan's latest endeavour is authoring "Peggy of the Cove" the legendary sole survivor of a shipwreck in the 1800s, who some claim Peggy's Cove was named after. Through Peggy's legend, amusing stories and awesome photo props, Ivan joyfully entertains curious visitors at his childhood home museum where, in his story, Peggy spent time with her best friend, Janet.
