End of the line : the Dominion Atlantic Railway : a trip back in time / Mike Parker. Lawrencetown Beach, NS: Pottersfield Press, 2019. 223 pages : illustrations (some colour), colour maps ; 25 cm.

End of the Line follows a similar track as three of Mike Parker's best-selling books about ghost towns and deserted island settlements - Gold Rush Ghost Towns, Buried in the Woods, and Ghost Islands of Nova Scotia. Presented in Mike's popular storytelling style, and drawing upon more than 430 images, many of them in colour, End of the Line opens another window to the past, taking the reader for a nostalgic trip back in time on the abandoned Dominion Atlantic Railway along the once-famous Land of Evangeline route from Yarmouth to Halifax through the heart of the Annapolis Valley. There have been many railways but none more storied than the D.A.R. (1894-1994), considered to be 'one of the more important pages out of Nova Scotia history.' Mike Parker is a best-selling author who has been writing about his native province for many years and has earned numerous accolades, including that of Nova Scotia's Storyteller. Mike is affiliated with the Gorsebrook Research Institute for Atlantic Canada Studies at Saint Mary's University as a research associate. He is a graduate of Acadia University and a long-time resident of Dartmouth. Includes bibliographical references (page 222-223).

The days of the general store may be long gone but thanks to Mike Parker are not forgotten. Illustrated with more than 400 images, A Little of Everything has something for everyone. For those who remember the sights, sounds and smells of an old-fashioned general store, this book will be a walk down memory lane. For those less fortunate who missed out on the waning days of the general store but are looking for a good read with a touch of history, A Little of Everything will open another window to the past in Mike's long-time quest to shine light on Nova Scotia's old days, old ways. Yesterday's general store was today's Costco, Home Depot and Superstore rolled into one – and then some. Includes selected bibliography.
