There are major gaps in the submissions due in part to the irregular submissions of the correspondents. It is also quite likely there were copies of the newspapers missing or were not suitable for imaging. Forest City it seems was the earliest to have a regular correspondent with an item dated August 1886. The authors were never credited with a byline but an educated guess can identify some of them. Where applicable I have added personal comments to help explain relationships and denote who "Mrs." is. Women were always identified by their husband's name. Anything in italics are my remarks. At the end of some entries are comments of the reader further expanding information."--Page 4 of cover. privately published Paperback

Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. black cloth gilt spinexii271bibliography index Contents: Introduction A history of the peoples of New Brunswick Historical economic and political contexts of service provision Poor law legislation and the poverty experience Origins and development of social care agencies and networks The evolution of child welfare A portrait of New Brunswick's earliest social workers The first Acadian social workers Social workers experience child welfare : view from the trenches Ushering in equal opportunity Conclusion. "Prior to the implementation of the Equal Opportunity Program in the 1960s most New Brunswickers many of them Francophone lived with limited access to welfare education and health services. New Brunswick's social services framework was similar to that of nineteenth-century England and many people experienced the patronizing attitudes inherent in these laws. New Brunswick Before Equal Opportunity examines the observations and experiences of New Brunswick's early social workers who operated under this system and illuminates how Premier Louis J. Robichaud's Equal Opportunity Program transformed the province's social services. Authors Laurel Lewey Louis J. Richard and Linda Turner describe more than a century of social work history including the work of the earliest Acadian social workers. They also address the fact that the federal government did not take responsibility for social welfare of the Mi'kmaq and Maliseet people planning for assimilation instead. Clan structures continued to be relied on while subsisting upon inadequate relief provisions."-- Provided by publisher. University of Toronto Press Hardcover

Folio - over 12 - 15" tall. pict card wraps pp. 279 illustrated throughout numerous full color illustrations 4 pp bibliography index A very through well written account of efforts to save the Atlantic Salmon. Much on the early history of the salmon. A good selection for any collector of angling books Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall "Watershed Down Philip Lee's series of articles in The Telegraph Journal won for the author the Miramichi Salmon Association's Ted Williams Award the Atlantic Journalism Award for Best Enterprise Reporting and the 1995 Canadian Association of Journalists Award for the Best Investigative Report of the Year. Home Pool: The Fight to Save the Atlantic Salmon is that amazing series in book form. Lee's research included visits to the famous salmon river systems of New Brunswick Quebec Scotland and Iceland. In addition he faced squarely such issues as the reckless slaughter of fish the mismanagement of forests and farmlands pollution and Native fishing rights. Above all he talked to "the friends of the river" - the people determined to prevent the extinction of the Atlantic salmon. This research is the basis of Home Pool's controversial conclusion: that governments must transfer management of our rivers and watersheds to private owners conservation trusts and river communities. Only such radical reform can save the legendary salmon and its home waters a resource that the world is close to losing forever."--Page 4 of cover. Goose Lane Paperback
