Description
Who would have guessed that a small province could hold so many falls? Overall, New Brunswick is home to more than 1,000 waterfalls — some remote, and some surprisingly accessible. Spilling over an incredible range of ancient geological terrain, each of the fifty-five waterfalls photographed for this richly illustrated volume is complemented by descriptoins, directions, and background information on each site.
Guitard's photographs are composed with an eye to the diversity and particular beauty and geological situation of each watercourse. A map locates each waterfall. Spanning all five regions of New Brunswick (Acadian Coastal, Appalachian Range, River Valley Scenic, Fundy Coastal, and Miramichi River), there's something for everyone — you may even want to strap on your backpack and head out to experience them yourself.
About the author
Nicholas Guitard has always been an avid nature lover and photographer. On a fateful trip with friends to find Walton Glen Gorge near the Bay of Fundy, the falls eluded discovery, and Nicholas began his research. The rest is history. Over the last two years, he has documented more than a hundred waterfalls in New Brunswick, culminating in the lushly illustrated Waterfalls of New Brunswick, a website (www.waterfallsnewbrunswick.ca), and this guide to New Brunswick's waterfalls.
