Book excerpt: This book documents the beautiful Tall Ship Bluenose, now a sailing ambassador for the province of Nova Scotia, and tells the dramatic story of the battles and triumphs of original Bluenose. The original Bluenose, built in Lunenburg and launched in 1921, was designed to combine a career as a racing ship with the working role fishing the Grand Banks off Newfoundland. Its captain, Angus Walters, took Bluenose to five international sailing races, and was undefeated for seventeen years. By the 1930s, the vessel's achievements made it an icon for Nova Scotia and an important Canadian symbol. The newly-restored replica, the Bluenose II, represents the wooden shipbuilding achievements and the dory-based cod fishery traditions of Nova Scotia. This book offers an interpretive guide of the ship and its complex traditional equipment. It also tells the story of the original Bluenose, with many historic photographs of the ship and its crew aboard the most famous Tall Ship in Canada in this souvenir of a vessel whose history and allure continues to captivate to this day.

Book excerpt: The riotous third installment of the bestselling Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer series. This time, the East Coast reindeer is out to save the Christmas Lobsterpalooza! Everyone's favourite blue-nosed reindeer is back with another uniquely Nova Scotian Christmas adventure! It's Christmas Eve on Nova Scotia's South Shore, and a community is preparing for their annual Lobsterpalooza -- a festive evening of fun, food, and family. But a storm is gathering off the coast, and the lobster fishers haven't returned home with their haul yet. When the community's lighthouse goes out, the fishers have nothing to guide them home....and nothing to warn them of the big, jagged Jingle Bell Rock that looms between them and safe harbour. If only there were a brave, bright-nosed reindeer who could save the fleet, save Lobsterpalooza, and save Christmas. The third installment in the bestselling series of illustrated early readers, this thrilling seasonal romp will instantly become a holiday tradition. Features bold, vibrant artwork by celebrated artist Brenda Jones (Skunks for Breakfast, Sid the Kid and the Dryer).
