Written by Derek Hayes. Published by Douglas & McIntyre Ltd., 2004. Description: |
| A visually spectacular saga of the events, people and experiences
that shaped the nation and the Canadian psyche. From exploration and conquest to the forging of a nation, this remarkable book charts the course of Canadian history. More than 440 carefully selected images (included 200 photographs, 50 paintings and drawings and 35 historic maps) set this visually stunning book in a class by itself. Along with an engaging text, it relates the fascinating stories of a nation in the making. Here are the events, the newsmakers, and the ordinary folk that shaped the Canadian experience. This innovative, superbly produced book is much more than the story of Canada. Besides addressing all the expected themes — from the early days of exploration and settlement through the building of a nation to Canada’s contribution to the two world wars — it reveals many lesser-known facets of Canadian history. This stunningly designed book covers both the “offcial” aspects of history and the phenomena, such as immigration and the baby boom, that had an impact on almost everyone. |
