The Road to Canada: The Grand Communications Route from Saint John to Quebec (New Brunswick Military Heritage) Paperback – Illustrated, May 13, 2005

Having heard the author speak about his book "The Aroostook War of 1839", where he mentioned this earlier book, I knew I had to have both books for my library. Especially meaningful right now as a re-enactment of an early canoe trip along the Grand Communications Route is currently taking place.

Very informative, but not very lengthy

Outstanding book. Ties together much of the story of Acadian History from Nova Scotia to New Brunswick and Madawaska, and the ultimate determination of the US-Canadian Border through the Webster-Ashburton Treaty in 1842. Provides a geographic and strategic foundation for political decisions.

Looks like good material!
