Kingston Ontario

Fort Henry

With its massive limestone walls and elegant Martello towers, Fort Henry was once central to the defence of Canada; today, its precision drill and battle reenactments attract visitors from the world over. This book offers a richly illustrated guide to the fort: its history is shown in dramatic photographs and rare nineteenth-century prints and paintings, while an illustrated walking tour takes the visitor through the main rooms at the site.

Just down the road is the Military Communications And Electronics Museum which shows how protection and military work has changed since the heyday of the fort
