Ce volume présente l’expansion des seigneuries et les centres de population qui ont façonné le comté de Bonaventure et les cantons avoisinants. Il décrit les routes, les rivières et les lacs qui structurent l’économie locale, de la pêche au saumon et au homard à l’exploitation forestière et à l’agriculture, à une époque où les premières communautés se rassemblaient autour des centres industriels et commerciaux.
On y suit aussi l’arrivée des Loyalistes et l’évolution démographique, avec le mélange des communautés françaises et étrangères qui ont construit des villages comme New-Carlisle et Newport. Le texte parle des routes et du chemin de fer qui relient les villages à l’Intercolonial, et explique comment ces infrastructures ont accéléré l’installation et l’écoulement des produits locaux vers les marchés canadiens.
- Des portraits de paroisses, de villages et de centres qui deviennent des pôles d’habitation et d’échanges.
- Des informations sur l’industrie forestière, les ressources du sol et les ferries d’eau qui nourrissent l’économie locale.
- Des données sur les rivières et les lacs, lieux de pêche et de navigation, et leur rôle dans le développement régional.
- Un cadre pour comprendre les attentes des colons, le façonnement des communautés et les perspectives d’avenir.
Idéal pour les curieux d’histoire régionale et les lecteurs souhaitant comprendre comment les paysages et les routes ont soutenu la colonisation et la croissance économique dans ce coin du Québec.
Ce livre s’adresse à ceux qui s’intéressent à l’évolution des centres de population, des ressources naturelles et des infrastructures qui ont façonné les collectivités de Bonaventure, Matapédia et leurs environs.
