Eligibility requirements. 

While the committee was impressed with the quality of books submitted for the New Brunswick Scholarly Book Award, Alan MacEachern’s The Miramichi Fire: A History (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2020) was selected as this year’s winner. Not only does MacEachern’s comprehensive archival research delve deeply into provincial history, economics, and lore, but it also brings environmental, climatic, and hydrological understandings to bear on how such conflagrations start and spread; how they change ecosystems, work patterns, and populations; and how they are remembered in the popular imagination. As such, the book makes important contributions to our understanding of New Brunswick’s resource-dependent culture, both past and present. The book is thoroughly researched and written in a style that is scholarly and at times playful in its presentation of the facts and stories that have accompanied this momentous event in provincial history.

New Brunswick Scholarly Book Award

Growing up in New Brunswick, I have long been mindful of the love and pride that many feel for Fundy National Park, but until recently I had never been aware of how this connection came to be. Stemming from this curiosity, I grew interested in the art historical ties that Fundy holds through its enduring connection to artists and cultural institutions. Interestingly, Fundy National Park and the surrounding community have long been a cultural hub for artists. Beginning with the opening of the park in 1950, there have been courses for various forms of craft, workshops, cultural events, and artist residencies taking place within the park. The park now hosts a wide array of guests, from Mount Allison University students, to beloved bands and musicians.

The Journal of New Brunswick Studies/Revue d’études sur le Nouveau-Brunswick is pleased to announce that Dr. Michael Boudreau, Department of Criminology & Criminal Justice, St. Thomas University, is the new Editor of the Journal.  He replaces Dr. Tony Tremblay who, in addition to being the founding Editor of the Journal, has served in this capacity for the past ten years.   

The Journal is also delighted to welcome four new members to the Editorial Board: Dr. Kristi Allain (St. Thomas University); Dr. Leah Grandy (University of New Brunswick Libraries); Dr. Bonnie Huskins (St. Thomas University); and Dr. Jean Sauvageau (St. Thomas University).
