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.
