Synopsis

Explore a historic rail journey through Atlantic Canada’s coast, marshes, and storied towns. This edition offers a vivid portrait of the lands along the Intercolonial Railway, from the Bay of Fundy shores to Amherst, Nova Scotia, and the Magdalen Islands. Rich in landscapes, settlements, and maritime heritage, it invites readers to glimpse the region’s past and present through travel-writing and local color.

Across page after page, you’ll encounter the region’s geography, early settlements, and the evolution of its marsh lands, fisheries, and towns. The narrative blends place descriptions with glimpses of history, inviting a reader to understand why this route mattered to Canada’s development and how communities grew around the sea and the rail.

- Discover the marshes that shaped farming and trade, and how tides and sediment created fertile fields.
- Learn about lighthouse-adjacent towns, ironworks, canneries, and the economic life that fed a growing nation.
- See how forts, old routes, and canal plans reflect past strategic ambitions.
- Get a sense of coastal fisheries, shipping, and the people who depend on ocean resources.

Ideal for readers of travel lore, Canadian history, and railway-era stories who want a grounded, tangible sense of place along this historic route.

A propos du livre

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.
