An excerpt from a review by Virginia Stoddard, Deputy Director, Western Counties Regional Library: "Its scope and body includes not only the essential and expected subjects ( such as Loyalists, community histories, biographies of well known figures) but also interesting and unexpected topics ( such as references to articles about "Doc Weaver", the physician imposter and to Perry Wamback, Shelburne Town Crier). Coverage of areas such as tourism, environmental studies, geology, and industry add depth and ensure that the bibliographic guide will appeal, not just to professional researcher, but also to anyone with interest in Shelburne County matters. Not only has Powell cast a wide net in her subject coverage, but she also covers an extensive time period from the 18th century to modern day. The inclusion of many 20th century resources is impressive. ...Powell's annotations describe the content and coverage of the cited items succinctly and well. The reader is easily able to determine whether a given source would be of interest. The Table of Contents is detailed and guides the readers quickly to areas of interest. Shelburne County, Nova Scotia: an annotated bibliography fills a gap since no other comparable publication exists. It will be invaluable to professional and amateur researchers and scholars, and to anyone with Shelburne County roots and interests...
