Abstract
*Taken from 'Preface' page
"Most of these maps were drawn over an extended period for particular requirements such as guiding canoeists, organizing orienteering meets, undertaking field studies with students and researchers, publicizing municipal initiatives, and supporting fundraisers.
Creative teachers will find many map details to inspire student exploration, investigation, and discovery. Select maps could be duplicated, coloured, taken on field trips, modified, and included in written research assignments.
Inspiration came from enthusiastic friends, associates, and companions over many years. They include canoeists, citizens of Vanceboro, McAdam, Calais, St. Stephen Parks and Recreation Officials, and the congenial leader and associates of the St. Croix International Waterway Commission.
This atlas is dedicated to them.
