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).

Series: Images of our Past. For a hundred years (1894-1994), the Dominion Atlantic Railway served the people of western Nova Scotia — from Yarmouth to Halifax — faithfully. Gary Ness traces the history of the line through gorgeous photographs and fascinating stories from the people who worked along the route and the passengers who used the trains to travel through the heart of the Annapolis Valley. Includes over 150 black and white photos. Gary Ness's fascination with trains started in childhood, but it was in 1976 when he found an intriguing 1940s era photograph that he became a train photographer and author. Based on his collection of old photos and stories, he has written books about the Dominion Atlantic Railway and about the Canadian, CPR's famous passenger train. His photographs are found in many personal collections, and his photo essays have been published in several national railway periodicals. In 1988 he published the two-volume book 'Canadian Pacific's Dominion Atlantic Railway. Includes bibliographical references.
