Opis: Station Director Radio Station CHNS Halifax, N. S. The Imperial Publishing Company Limited Halifax, Nova Scotia 1943. str 196, okładka twarda oryg. stan db+ [zakurzona i podniszczona nieznacznie okładka] PREFACE This book of selected Tales Told Under the Old Town Clock is presented in the hope that it will prove acceptable to the many people who have been listeners to the series of talks broadcast over CHNS, Halifax, every Sunday at 12.45, and who have requested copies of the various tales told before the microphone relative to the history of our City and Province and the Atlantic Ocean, with which our past activities are so much associated. No attempt has been made to present these tales in regular story-book form, but rather to keep the radio atmosphere. The actual radio continuity is printed exactly as it was used on the air during the past twelve months. The material for these radio talks was obtained from various sources. The historical facts from numerous history books and publicity material and historical papers read from time to time. Individuals too numerous to mention have contributed by expressions of their interest and by suggestions of subjects for talks, and in some cases actually telling the facts as they knew them and these facts were simply put into broadcast form by the narrator of the tales. Special thanks are due previous writers on Nova Scotian history and wherever their writings were known as the source of information, such mention is made in the script of the talk concerned. The co-operation of Bob Chambers, the Halifax Herald's popular illustrator, and Arthur Kane of the Maritime Photo Engravers is especially appreciated, they having contributed much toward the composition of this book. My thanks are also due to Bert Wetmore and Berton Robinson who have co-operated in collecting information from time to time, for some of the Tales Told Under the Old Town Clock.
