Download or read book Fishing at Grande-Grave in the Early 1900s written by Roch Samson and published by [Hull, Quebec] : National Historic Parks and Sites Branch, Parks Canada. This book was released on 1980 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the French regime, the Gaspé fishery was characterized by the seasonal migration of fishermen from France. The fishery became increasingly sedentary after 1760, as Jersey interests moved in and imposed their organizational structure on the industry. Jersey firms set up operations at Grand-Grave in this period, and features typical of the Jersey system were still visible there in the early 1900s. There is evidence that fishermen worked under differing conditions. All the fishing techniques were characteristic of coastal fishing, and the catching and processing methods belong to tradition that originated with the first Europeans who fished in Gaspé waters. Herring, sand lance and squid were the main bait species; the principal types of gear were the herring net, the sand lance seine, the jigger and the hand line; and the Gaspé boat, a type of sailing barge, was the main fishing vessel. The processing was done by company establishment and independent fishermen alike at the same time of the year, and traditional methods were used in both cases.

Book Synopsis Fishermen and Merchants in 19th Century Gaspé by : Roch Samson

This book was released on 1984 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is part of the work done in connection with therestoration of the old fishing establishment at Grand-Grave, which is now in Forillon National Park. Its contents should helpin the historical interpretation of the social and economic lifeof merchants and fishermen who lived in Forillon. The archivesof William Hyman and Sons (1845-1967) formed most of thedocumentary basis for the work. The guiding principle for thework was economic anthropology, and its purpose to show how Gaspesociety was shaped by the manner in which the production of driedcod was organized. Gaspe was settled and populated through asystematic expoloitation of cod, so that a study of this processconstitutes a most valuable means of access to its history.

Book Synopsis How Deep is the Ocean? by : James E. Candow
Download or read book How Deep is the Ocean? written by James E. Candow and published by Cape Breton University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collapse of the North Atlantic cod fishery in 1992 was one of the world's worst ecological disasters, and in 1995 Spanish and Canadian trawlers faced off over the dwindling supply of turbot. Where there used to be plenty, there is now virtually nothing; fishing communities that once survived (or even prospered) now face ruin.The twenty essays in How Deep is the Ocean? take a detailed look at the evolution of the Canadian east coast fishery. The book begins with aboriginal fishers before European contact; then it follows the European fishery through the days of sail, when boats could scarcely make headway through the teeming cod, to the diesel age, when electronic aids can find almost no cod. How Deep is the Ocean? covers the sociology of early fishing communities, the impact and significance of the credit system, and the techniques and technologies of aboriginal, European, and Canadian fisheries. The essays on the twentieth century include old-time fishing patterns of living memory and the changed state of the North Atlantic's ecology.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18th-century container glass from the Roma site has been divided into three main categories, one secondary category and one miscellaneous category on the basis of a combination of features that include glassmaking tradition, country of origin, function and dating. The main categories are: utilitarian blue-green containers of the French wood-burning tradition; darkgreen liquor bottles of the French coal-burning tradition; and "black" glass liquor bottles of the English coal-burning tradition. The secondary category consists of small bottles resembling the French liquor bottles and believed to be their quarter- and half-sized counterparts. Objects unidentifiable by any of these standards are included in the miscellaneous category. A total of 156 identifiable objects were retrieved from the Roma site and are described in this report.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper identifies and attempts to evaluate 39 groups of wares derived from an examination of 58,737 sherds of pottery. These wares were discovered as a result of the extensive excavations that have taken place at Louisbourg in the past 20 years. They comprise coarse earthenwares only - the fine wares are the subject of separate attention. The French wares were probably derived from two sources, the west coast naval base of Rochefort and the south coast port and naval supply base of Marseilles. Both places attracted goods from some distance for northern French material occurs here as do northern Italian wares. The colonial wares are varied and suggest several sources; there are also ephemeral groups of wares from England and the Orient.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pierre-Étienne Fortin led a life and plied a career at the heart of Canada's early history. He was an adventurer, an amateur scientist, an early (if ambiguous) conservationist and a Conservative politician from 1867 to 1888. He was a doctor on Grosse-Île amid the horrors of the 1847 typhus epidemic, led a mounted police troop during the infamous Montreal riots of 1849 and, as commander of the armed schooner La Canadienne, policed the Gulf of St. Lawrence from 1852 to 1867, when thousands of New Englanders and Nova Scotians swarmed over the fishing grounds. His official life as magistrate and mid-level bureaucrat often exemplified tensions of early nationhood: those between elites and colonists; and those arising from the nationalistic impulse to impose law and order on the wilderness. The interests, issues and sympathies at work on Fortin in the founding period remain compelling today: job creation versus environmental protection, free trade with the U.S., the exploitation of Canadian fisheries, relations with aboriginal peoples, and the political status of Quebec within confederation.
