Tracing Newfoundland’s evolving place names from the early sixteenth to the mid-twentieth century, the study leverages National Toponymic Series maps from 1954–1959 to reveal historical, linguistic, and interpretive insights. A keyed map, glossary, analytical surveys, and an annotated gazetteer enrich the narrative.

Using 1954-1959 National Toponymic Series maps as a base point, the study records the development of each name in map sources across a period beginning in the early sixteenth century up to the middle of the twentieth century. Included is a map keyed to the study area, a glossary of foreign terms, a history of the mapping of Newfoundland names, an analytical survey of the place names of the Northern Peninsula, a gazetteer which present historical, interpretive, and linguistic notes, a list of the maps consulted, and a bibliography of the writings of E.R. Seary.
