Genealogical
and Historical Books
Mum arrived home from a day of
Christmas shopping laden with bags from MRA’s, Metropolitan,
Woolworth’s and Duval’s. She had a very tired look on her face.
Dad asked, “Did you find everything you went to get?”.
I thought she was going to burst into tears as she answered, “I
searched and I searched but I could not find the crochet pattern book
your mother wanted.”
Well now, if you are looking for a book to give to someone interested
in New Brunswick genealogy or history, I suggest you visit the Gift Shop of the New Brunswick Museum in Market
Square, Saint John, as there are some very interesting books
on their
shelves. I found more
than one that I could suggest my family give me for Christmas.

There are several books for sale at http://www.rubycusack.com/Bookshelf.html

suggestions may help in your search for a gift for the genealogy or
history buff on
your list.
