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).
