POPULAR LOCAL INTERESTS

Historic Shelburne
Sarah Acker & Lewis Jackson

Perhaps the most picturesque town in Nova Scotia, and certainly one of the oldest, this is a peek back to the late 19th century and forward to the mid 20th.Drawing from a rich source of images and collective knowledge from town elders, historians and researchers, Historic Shelburne chronicles the many lives the community has lived since the first Loyalists arrived.  Impressive heritage and wonderful old photos will make this a keepsake.

Nova Scotia Birds
Jeffrey C. Domm

This book introduces 200 of the top species found all around the province, at the seashore, in the Cape Breton Highlands, the city parks and around the thousands of pristine lakes in the province. Whether observing spectacular hawks or eagles in the wild or seabirds over the ocean, listening for warblers in the forest, or the first spring birds at the feeder, this guide is designed to allow for quick and easy identification. Original full-colour illustrations by Jeffrey Domm. Text and graphic keys give helpful tips for observing. The birding hotspot section (with an accompanying map) shows 46 locations across the province where good birdwatching is assured.
