Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hand Book of New Brunswick (Canada): Issued by the Authority of the Crown Land Department, Hon. A. T. Dunn, Survetor General To undertake a description of the Province, which should be authorative and give the various economic particulars as they should be given, would involve a considerable amount of labour and time. This, in the present work, I have been unable to give. When, at the request of the Provincial Government, I undertook to write a description of the Province, I was busily engaged in preparing to lecture in Great Britain on the resources of the country, and my time was most limited. I was therefore only able to devote a portion of my time during some three weeks to dictating the the following description, and from the method of preparing it, it must necessarily be inferred that the work is far from as full as I should care to make it. The facts are, however, I believe, correct in as far as they go, and have been adduced, for the most part, from personal observation - anything that has been quoted having been credited to its proper source at the time. The works which I have referred to in the course of the preparation are: "A Hand-book of Information for Immigrants to New Brunswick," by M. H. Perley, Esq., London, 1857. "Province of New Brunswick, its Resources, Advantages and Progress," by Charles H. Lugrin, published by authority of the Legislature, 1886. "A report on the Agricultural Capabilities of the Province," by J. F. W. Johnson, F. R. S., etc., Fredericton, 1850. "The Mineral Resources of the Province of New Brunswick," by L. W. Bailey, Ph. D., LL. D., F. R. S. C., Ottawa, 1899. "Gun and Rod in New Brunswick." by W. K. Reynolds, and D. G. Smith, Fishery Commissioner for New Brunswick; and "St. John, New Brunswick, as a Canadian Winter Port," by a Committee of the Board of Trade, St. John, 1898.
