A fully illustrated account of the creation and maintenance of Canada’s finest Victorian public gardens, and the story of how severe hurricane destruction led to a beautiful and sensitive restoration. The Halifax Public Gardens are the oldest and finest Victorian public gardens outside the United Kingdom. This is the authoritative visual account of their history including the story of how a destructive hurricane led to a complex restoration project drawing on heritage experts from across North America. This book shares how the Gardens came to be, how they were designed, and how they have been maintained over the decades. Authors Robert Pace, Robert Salah and Peter L. Twohig elaborate on Gardens’ notable features, including the bandstand, memorial fountains, stone bridges, water features and varied wildlife. The breadth and complexity of the Gardens’ botanical and architectural beauty is exemplified in more than 150 archival images and contemporary full-colour photography. When the future of the Halifax Public Gardens was in doubt after sustaining significant damage during Hurricane Juan in 2003, authors Robert Pace and Robert Salah spearheaded the community-led conservation effort that followed. The account of how this was accomplished is illustrated with images of the hurricane’s damage and a portfolio of the project’s breathtaking results. This beautiful book documents an important cultural treasure, and explains how public engagement and support have ensured the preservation of this valued public park.

Newfoundland and Labrador has much more to offer than what is found in tourism guides. For explorers both local and from away who wish to step off the beaten track, this guide is for you. This province is filled with geologic wonders, mysterious histories, curious structures, and off-the-beaten-path destinations. From unexplored cave systems to the remains of Cold War-era aircraft, from deteriorating churches in long resettled communities to abandoned air force bases, from the remains of Newfoundland's first pulp mill to the intricate mines below many communities, this book will inspire wonder and curiosity -- and raise awareness of the many unusual and peculiar locations that are nestled throughout this province. Hidden Newfoundland describes over 80 of these marvellous, sometimes mysterious places. Each site description includes historical context, information about the area and, of course, insider's directions for how to get there.
