Softcover / Paperback. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Softcover. In January, 1896, a young girl was murdered in her home in Bear River, Nova Scotia. In October of the same year, a fire at a house in Meadow Brook, New Brunswick, masked a robbery and beating. The murder at Bear River, the Meadow Brook tragedy, the problems with vagrants in Charlottetown. For this vivid account of crimes and criminals - from con-men to murderers, from vagrants to bigamists - the author has gathered information from newspapers and official records to tell the stories of the outcasts, vagabonds, thieves and killers who populate the darker corners of Maritime history. In the author's account, the "world we have lost" in the Maritimes was not a peaceful world. There were preachers who were also bigamists; policemen who were motivated by revenge; ordinary citizens who suddenly engaged in "unnatural" acts. The author demonstrates that where crime is concerned, the boundaries are not set by geography but by the unpredictable impulses of men and women. Illus. 192pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. V+.
