Step aboard a vanished Newfoundland, where every tide, port, and passage was recorded with meticulous care. A world on the cusp. First issued for 1915, J. W. Withers's Year Book and Almanac of Newfoundland stands as a classic historical almanac Newfoundland readers still turn to for an authoritative picture of life in pre confederation Newfoundland. Combining a practical nautical almanac and calendar with a regional year book reference, it captures a moment when the Dominion's fortunes were bound to the sea and to North Atlantic trade and navigation, offering a vivid snapshot of early 20th century Newfoundland. Within these pages you encounter succinct north Atlantic navigation data, tide tables and ports, brief notices on government, commerce and fisheries, and the sort of everyday facts and figures that rarely survive elsewhere. As one of the key British dominion statistical yearbooks of the early twentieth century, it illuminates Newfoundland maritime history at the very point where the First World War was reshaping oceans, routes, and empires. Indispensable for maritime history researchers and genealogists, and a rewarding read for anyone building a Newfoundland local history collection or a wider Canadian maritime almanacs collection, this carefully prepared edition brings a rare reference work back into circulation. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
