A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Forestt Stream andS eashore Tis the mild statement of a fact to say that the Intercolonial Railway of Canada and its connections traverse a greater variety of tourist country than does any railway system in the world.

This depends on what is sought. For the sportsman there are unrivalled forests and streams, lakes and shores. For hundreds of miles the eye of the artist may revel in the sight of the grandest of scenery upon the mountains, in

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
