Synopsis
An Account Of The River St. John, With Its Tributary Rivers And Lakes (1841) by Edmund Ward is a promotional, survey-like pamphlet describing the St. John River system, its principal tributaries and lakes, and the lands surrounding New Brunswick. Ward, an Assistant Government Emigrant Agent, argues that immigration should be directed toward New Brunswick to relieve population pressure and to promote wealth and subsistence for settlers. The text outlines the River St. John and its main feeders (Miramichi, Restigouche, Jemseg, Grand Lake, and others), compares Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, and extols fertile intervales, timber and mineral resources, and growing markets. It details navigable routes, towns, and proposed roads, and provides practical guidance on land availability, climate, and settlement prospects. The work functions as both geographic guide and promotional tract intended to attract emigrants and capital to the province, while offering a view of colonial administration and infrastructure.
