The studies in this series are designated as dealing with a specific area, although most of them were prepared for particular corporations. General provincial divisions are narrowed to include surveys of communities that are filed alphabetically under the general headings. There are also all-inclusive headings such as “Various Areas” which have been filed to constitute divisions distinct from the provincial headings. Professor Edmunds prepared the studies that are filed; information includes data on soils and minerals, reports, maps, graphs and general information relating to the particular areas involved.
