Welcome,

Old Stone Books Ltd. publishes non-fiction histories, with a special focus on Muskoka’s rich past.

Curing Tuberculosis in Muskoka: Canada’s First Sanatoria is the true story of Canada’s first tuberculosis hospitals, originally built in Gravenhurst at the end of the nineteenth century. At the heart of the book are the real-life experiences of patients and staff who fought tuberculosis in these hospitals for over six decades … and finally won.

Exile Air: World War II’s “Little Norway” in Toronto and Muskoka is the inspiring story of the Royal Norwegian Air Force’s wartime bases in Ontario and the recruits who trained there, then battled Hitler’s Nazis overseas.

Both books were written by Andrea Baston, with photographs/photographic editing by Candis Jones.
