Publisher Description: Some believe that Havre de Grace's name is derived from "C'est le havre," an expression coined by General Marquis de la Fayette during the late 18th century. Once a small settlement, Havre de Grace now boasts a population of 13,000 and has evolved into a major attraction for recreation and tourism. |
