St. John’s: A Brief History provides a concise, comprehensive overview of Newfoundland history and modern St. John’s. The book describes how, through war and the fishery, Newfoundland became settled, a colony, a Dominion of the British Empire and a province of Canada. The book highlights the landmarks and historic sites of old St John’s, architecture and historic buildings, the harbour, places of interest around the harbour and St. John’s, our seafaring heritage, marine life, the fishery, the oil and gas industry and the outlook for the future. The book is well illustrated with many good maps and contains some quirky facts.
