About This Item
Tangier, Nova Scotia: Tangier Gold Mine Historical Society, 2006. Book is as new except small faint pink stain on forward edge which may have been a remainder mark. Covers show no wear. Spine is straight and uncreased. Interior is tight, unmarked, crisp, seemingly unread. Rear cover blurb states "The narrative is based on a combination of oral history and archival sources that provide a framework around which is woven one man's history of Tangier." The book would seem to be an anecdotal history, complete with b&w photos, drawings, maps etc., but for some reason the author or publisher has chosen to catalogue it as fiction. You'll have to decide. 254 pp.. First. Trade Paperback. fine+/No Jacket as Issued. 8vo.
