The Glooscap legends Illustrated with new enhanced images

Glooscap or Glooskap is featured in legends and stories from New England to Newfoundland and Labrador. In fact, recent writers have speculated that Glooscap was pre-Columbian explorer Scottish Prince Henry Sinclair and some have even extended this to a connection with the Knights Templar. One of the best compilations of Glooscap stories and the argument for a close connection with early Viking travelers is found in Leland’s The Algonquin Legends of New England. Leland’s original publication in 1884 contained delightful drawings depicting some of the Glooscap legends. Using some of the remarkable tools available today, these images have been recreated and updated to a modern level. Each drawing is accompanied by an abbreviated version of the legend it represents
