The museum has a growing collection of rare books, mainly related to the history of the Restigouche region. They include:
Dashwood, Richard Lewes: Chiploquorgan; or Life By The Camp Fire, 1872
MacWhirter, Margaret Grant: Treasure Trove In Gaspe and the Baie des Chaleurs, 1919
Gesner, Abraham: New Brunswick with Notes for Emigrants, 1847
Clement, W.H.P. The History of the Dominion of Canada, 1898
T. McAvity & Sons, Illustrated Catalogue and Price List, 1892
Documents relating to the contract of F. X. Berlinguet & Co. with Her Majesty In connection with Sections 3 & 6 of the Intercolonial Railway, 1877. (These sections ran from about Jacquet River to Flatlands. Berlinguet abandoned the contract and sued the railway. In preparation for the court action the company published all its correspondence in a very limited edition. This is the only copy we are aware of. It is not listed in the checklists of secondary sources for New Brusnwick.)
Additional books will be added to this list as we decide which ones shold be included.
Access to these volumes can be arranged by contacting the museum.
