Nova Scotia Book Of Everything: Everything You Wanted To Know About

by John Macintyre, Martha Walls

MacIntyre Purcell Publishing Inc. | September 15, 2005 | Trade Paperback

From the number of kilometers of coastlines to the stories behind those weird place names (hello Ecum Secum) to profiles of Joe Howe and Thomas Chandler Haliburton, there is no book as comprehensive as the Nova Scotia Book of Everything. There is also no book more fun. Well known Nova Scotians like Premier John Hamm weigh in on subjects like the five Nova Scotians he admires most; or Ashley MacIssac on the five greatest Nova Scotia fiddlers; or Rita MacNeil on her five favourite places to get a cup of tea. The worst weather, Nova Scotia slang, the greatest crimes � it is all here. If you love Nova Scotia, you¹ll love the Nova Scotia Book of Everything.

    I think the great thing about this book is that it will appeal to readers of all ages and abilities. It has so many quick and fun grabbing titles and ideas and yet it has a lot of information both historical and to help the travel seeker!
