Series: Osgoode Society for Canadian Legal History. In Law, Debt, and Merchant Power, James Muir offers an extensive analysis of the civil cases of the time as well as the reasons behind their frequency. Muir's lively and detailed account of the individuals involved in litigation reveals a paradoxical society where debtors were also debt-collectors. Law, Debt, and Merchant Power demonstrates how important the law was for people in their business affairs and how they shaped it for their own ends. Includes bibliographical references pages 259-274 and index.

Rollinson, David

Nova Scotia's Industrial Heritage : A Guidebook / David Rollinson.  Halifax : Nimbus Publishing, 2017. v, 138 pages : illustrations ; 21 cm.

Nova Scotia Archives Library - FC2307 R65 2017 - Open Shelf

This guidebook explores 70 of Nova Scotia's historic industrial sites. If you drive across Nova Scotia, you will see abandoned rail lines and sleepy towns that once hummed with mills and mines. If you look closely enough, you will see the remnants of the province's industrial revolution, which began in the 1850s and faded away a century later. Author and historian David Rollinson identifies and explores many of the historic sites and cultural artifacts that record this era. Included are over 70 sites of interest from across the province, from the shipbuilding display at the Bear River Heritage Museum to the Digby Rail Trails on the old rail bed out of Digby, which overlooks the Annapolis Basin. Organized by industry - power, natural resources, agriculture, crafts, and transportation - and by county, and featuring 60 fascinating images, Nova Scotia's Industrial Heritage will appeal to tourists travelling by car as well as locals interested in industry, their roots, and social change. David Rollinson's interest in industrial heritage and the history of technology was sparked by a visit to a vintage machinery display as a youngster. After years of historic preservation work in the Caribbean, David moved to Nova Scotia. Includes bibliographical references and index.
