This guidebook to Nova Scotia's South-Western National Park is in the main a teaser. Even the park website has only a rudimentary map to the front country campground. The guide lacks an adequate map of the park. It does provide a detailed description of every back-country campsite and the hiking trails that reach them. It also describes canoe route loops and the nature of every portage used to get from lake to lake and stream but refers back to the hiking guide for campsite descriptions save for island sites accessible only by canoe. There is a brief section on natural history and the cultural background of the area and a briefer description of the seaside adjunct which was tacked onto the park for want of a better way to administer the acquisition.
