"The film gives an echanting view of the 'picture province', ranging from natural wonders of Magnetic Hill, Tidal Bore, and Reversing falls, to the historic charm of Saint John, frederiction, St. Andrews and Campobello Island, where the famous summer home of the late President Roosevelt Stands, a fishing sequence of Ted Williams, famouse baseball player, and the Deichmann Pottery. Narrator, Miss Hurst, takes the viewer through fishing villages and industrial towns, to festivals, centres of handicraft, camping grounds and art galleries. Should appeal to audiences of all ages."

"Novelist Fannie Hurst is guide and commentator for this entertaining film of sport fishing, salmon festivals and seascapes, reversing falls and historic sites."

"Cette province atlantique fournit à elle seule une variété peu commune de divertissements estivaux. La pêche au homard surtout connaît plusieurs adeptes. Ce film présente également des divertissements d'ordre intellectuel; visites de musées en particulier."
