bill,
 
this is a great book. i first saw it in a bookstore in corner brook, newfoundland soon after it was published. i did not buy it for a variety of reason. a few years later, when i realized how much i wanted a copy, i could not find one....apparently it is a limited edition book.
 
one day in 1987 while browsing in a book store in downtown boston, i saw a copy. not having enough cash on me to purchase it on the spot, i left a deposit, hurried home for the remainder, and returned to get it.  it has been a cherished volume in my collection since then. 
 
some of the photos within the book are on the net.

I've got an unsigned copy that I obtained from a forgotten out-of-print dealer.  Highly recommended.

For US/Canada border photos see
National Film Board of Canada, 1976, "Between Friends/Entre Amis", 
published by McClelland & Stewart Ltd on the occassion of the US
bicentennial. It is a coffee table book of boundary photos, of the houses
bisected by the boundary, boundary vistas and monuments. Al/Yu boundary
included.
Weighs about 3kg, so postage from an online bookshop may be expensive.
Lots of copies available at www.abebooks.com

I got a copy signed by the publisher : "Someday it may be a collector's
item. So keep it" !!
