The Novalis Guide to Canadian Shrines

George A. Rawlyk is a history professor at Queen’s University, the
author of Champions of the Truth: Fundamentalism, Modernism, and the
Maritime Baptists, and co-editor of Amazing Grace: Evangelicalism in
Australia, Britain, Canada, and the United State

For those Roman Catholics interested in pilgrimages to Canadian shrines,
this book will be of some interests. For most other readers, The Novalis
Guide will be largely a curiosity.

There is an all-too-brief 10-page introduction to pilgrimages in
general. Then there are brief descriptions of a select number of
Canadian shrines—12 in Newfoundland, 4 in Nova Scotia, 3 in Prince
Edward Island, 10 in New Brunswick, 85 in Quebec, 17 in Ontario, 9 in
Manitoba, 24 in Saskatchewan, 10 in Alberta, 5 in British Columbia, and
1 in the Northwest Territories.

The book is handsomely produced, and is particularly aimed at the
pilgrimage tourist.
