A Maritimer's Miscellany is a fast-paced, fun-filled tour of the Maritime Provinces. Find out: why Halifax was called a "hot southern town" during an American Civil War; which New Brunswick city is home to Canada's steepest street; which Maritime town has been voted the most liveable in the world-and more. Little-known, sometimes bizarre facts about unique people and places fill the pages of this curious collection. Sometimes serious, sometimes lighthearted, always intriguing. Clary Croft brings Maritime history and culture to life.
