  NEW BOOK: Officers of the British Forces in Canada During the War of 1812-15 By L. Homfray Irving   More info ...





BOOK - Place Names Of Atlantic Canada
by: William B. Hamilton


Place Names Of Atlantic Canada Based on archival research supplemented by field studies, Place Names of Atlantic Canada is the first volume to approach this topic from a regional perspective. Hundreds of cross references lead the reader to related information in all four atlantic provinces. The book also breaks new ground in tracing the evolution of names of important undersea features on the Grand Banks and off the Nova Scotia coastline.

An ideal reference book with more than 2,000 entries arranged alphabeticaly by province and aided by five maps, Place names of Canada will appeal to anyone interested in place naming in general and in culture and social history of Atlantic Canada.

William B. Hamilton is professor emeritus in the Faculty of Social Sciences at Mount Allison University. A former chair of the Toponymic Research Commitee of the Canadian Peermanent Committee on Geographic Names, he has written extensively on place names. His books include Local History in Atlantic Canada and The Macmillan Book of Canadian Place Names.
