The Dominion Atlantic Railway : 1894-1994 / Gary W. Ness. Halifax : Nimbus Publishing, 2014. xi, 179 pages : illustrations ; 20 x 25 cm.
Nova Scotia Archives Library - use request slip - HE2810 D7 N48 2014
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.

MacAskill, Wallace R., 1893-1956

Nova Scotia Archives Library - FC2312 M32 2015 - Open Shelf
Wallace MacAskill (1887-1956) is one of Nova Scotia's foremost photographers, lauded for his portraits of seascapes, sailing and fishing ships, and picturesque landscapes. In this collection of then and now photographs, Len Wagg follows in the footsteps of 50 of MacAskill's best shots, recreating them in colour contemporary portraits. Through side-by-side comparisons, readers see how much has changed, and how much has remarkably remained the same. Included are urban streetscapes, important events and monuments, and spectacular scenery from around the province -- Halifax to Louisbourg, Chester to Pictou. The photographs are captioned with short anecdotes conveying the significance of the images and the process of finding the location for some of MacAskill's original work.
