Christmas in the Maritimes

A Treasury of Stories and Memories

EDITED BY ELAINE INGALLS HOGG · In Cooperation with Canadaeast.com, a division of New Brunswick News

CHRISTMAS IN THE MARITIMES is a heartwarming look at Christmas traditions from Maritimers both at home and away. This is a collection of favourite yuletide memories written by readers of the Times & Transcript, the Daily Gleaner and the Telegraph Journal who contributed to the canadaeast.com website, as well as by writers, editors, historians, researchers and other wordsmiths working throughout the Maritime Provinces.

Humorous and heartfelt, these are stories of love and family coming together at the best time of the year to make it special, often in spite of hardships. The magic of the season comes alive in every story, reminding us about the history of our region as well as what is truly important about the Christmas season.

ELAINE INGALLS HOGG, a popular historian, has written for CBC Radio, Chicken Soup for the Volunteer’s Soul, and several newspapers and magazines. She has written a children’s book, Remembering Honey and edited the popular anniversary celebration of the Canso Causeway, When Canada Joined Cape Breton. Elaine was born on Grand Manan Island, lived in Cape Breton for twenty-nine years, and currently lives with her husband in Smiths Creek, New Brunswick.
