May Book Release. West Quebec author Katharine Fletcher will release a new edition of her book Capital Rambles: Exploring the National Capital Region. 

Using Ottawa’s downtown centre as a hub, this insider’s guide describes twelve adventures along “spokes” fanning out from the city’s core into a world of wooded hills, sylvan lakes, tumbling watersheds, and heritage villages.

Routes are detailed as drives by car, but the book also describes horseback riding, canoeing, biking, hiking, skiing and other ways to fully get out in the countryside.

The routes include the Rideau Canal, Mer Bleue, Petrie Island, Cumberland Village, the Lièvre River, Gatineau River, Ottawa River, Brewery Creek, Aylmer Road, Gatineau Park, Chats Falls (Quyon), and Mississippi Mills.  Published by Fitzhenry & Whiteside;$26.95.
