This text takes a revisionist approach to the development of the Nova Scotian economy from the end of the Acadian period to the era of Confederation. Challenging the popular view that the British colony prospered before it became a province of Canada, Julian Gwyn argues that the colony's economic past was anything but glorious. The book sheds light on late 20th-century economic problems faced by the Maritime provinces and should be of interest to those seeking to understand the historical development of the Maritime economy.
