Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lunenburg is one of Nova Scotia's most famous and picturesque towns. With its steep streets leading up from the harbour, lined with bright, distinctive heritage buildings built during its fishing and shipbuilding heyday, the town has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In this full-colour book, historian and heritage expert Brian Cuthbertson takes his readers on a tour of the old town, examining the charm of its landmark buildings such as the Lunenburg Academy, and the eclectic blend of old and new on its iconic waterfront. Cuthbertson outlines the town's history, from its founding in 1753 by a group of German Lutherans and French-speaking Calvinists, chiefly farmers and tradesmen. He follows the course of economic growth in the fisheries, including the famous Grand Banks fishery and the building of the fastest, most famous and beautiful working schooner of them all, Bluenose. He tracks the town's enduring traditions and continuing prosperity today. Illustrated with dozens of full-colour photographs and historical visuals, Lunenburg: Then and Now is an exciting tour of one of Canada's most distinctive and fascinating towns.

Download or read book Lunenburg written by Inge H. Hunter and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The name "Luneburg" was coined for King George II of England, who was also the duke of Luneburg, Germany, in 1727. The final name, Lunenburg, was probably a result of misspelling in the early records of the town. On August 1, 1728, Lunenburg was officially granted township but, as early as 1726, a variety of industries had been started and twenty-six houses had been built. In the late nineteenth century, the town returned to predominately agriculture and, today, is a rural residential community for industries in neighboring cities. Through a diverse collection of vintage images, Lunenburg will take you on a historical journey through the town's engaging past. Within these pages, you will see photographs of the early businesses that were established, such as bookbinders, blacksmiths, furniture makers, and shoe manufacturers; you will visit many homes, churches, schools and government buildings; and you will experience the daily lives of residents during this exciting time in history.
