A recent background work, Ronald Rees’s ''Land of the Loyalists: Their Struggle to Shape the Maritimes'' (Halifax: Nimbus Publishing, 2000), is reviewed in ''The Beaver'', April/May 2001, by retired history professor Ann Gorman Condon. She found it “the best popular history of the Loyalists I have read”, but wonders at the end “whether exiles, with their bitterness and longing for former homes, make good trailblazers.”<ref>Douglas, Althea.

For a glimpse of the lives of women connected with ships and shipbuilding, look for Helen Petchy’s little booklet, ''Signal Sea Changes'' (1997) which tells of two Dorchester “daughters of the shipyards,” Emma Chapman O’Neal and Sarah Palmer Ryan. Donal M. Baird’s ''Women at Sea in the Age of Sail'' (Halifax, Nova Scotia: Nimbus, 2001), 226 pages with map and illustrations, among other stories, tells that of Captain Daniel Smith Cochrane, born in St. Martins, New Brunswick, and his wife Annie Meldrum Parker, born in Tynmouth Creek, Saint John, New Brunswick, who accompanied his many voyages on the ''Prince Lucien'' of the Moran-Galloway fleet. It is important to note that they were married in Liverpool in 1866, and ended their days in England where they are buried. With seafaring families, this is always a possibility to watch out for.<ref>Douglas, Althea.
