Description:
From the Introduction:


This book explains the origin of the name of each of the 702 communities listed on the 2012 Official Travel Map of New Brunswick and 1,078 names of former communities or geographic features -- where the origin of the name is known.


The history of each name is succinctly chronicled with an emphasis on events post and current that ore historically significant, offbeat or humorous.


It also contains a treasure trove of over 300 little-known facts and occurrences in the province, more than 165 attractions and 79 mini-biographies of famous, infamous and not-so-famous-but-still-very-interesting New Brunswickers, folks who achieved something outstandingly positive -- or negative -- during their lifetimes.
