Synopsis

A concise, comprehensive overview of the oldest city in North America. St John's: A Brief History describes how, through war and the fishery, Newfoundland became settled, a colony, a Dominion of the British Empire, and finally a province of Canada. The book highlights the landmarks and historic sites of old St John's, architecture and historic buildings, the harbour, its seafaring heritage, the oil and gas industry, and the outlook for the future. The book is illustrated with maps and contains some quirky facts.
