Overview

Humans love lists. As humourist writer H. Allen Smith once wrote, "The human animal differs from the lesser primates in his passion for lists." That infatuation with lists continues here. From Nova Scotia's great collector comes a masterful collection of lists that will start family arguments, provoke a wry smile, or just generally entertain on a cold winter night or in the dog days of summer.

In The Nova Scotia Book of Lists find out:
•Joe Canada's Top10 qualities that define a "real" Nova Scotian.
• Natalie MacMaster's wish list of the Top 10 Nova Scotians she would like to perform for.
•Jimmy Rankin's 10 favourite songs ever performed by a Nova Scotian.
•JC Douglas' list to Top 10 bands or performers to ever come out of Nova Scotia.
•Dan Soucoup's list of Nova Scotia's 10 best books.
