Written by Janet Lunn and Christopher Moore. Illustrated by Alan Daniel. Published by Key Porter Books Ltd., 2007. Description: |
“The Story of Canada is one of the finest tools that young Canadians have ever received to help them reclaim their country’s past for themselves” – Maclean’sIn this new, fully-updated paperback edition, authors Janet Lunn and Christopher Moore tell the country’s story through rich narrative, recreations of daily life, folk tales and fascinating facts. Imagine life a thousand years ago inside a smoky Viking House at windswept L'Anse aux Meadows. Meet fourteen-year-old Madeleine, whose quick thinking saved Fort Verchères in 1692. Experience the excitement of a prairie buffalo hunt, and the first railway journey from coast to coast. From the epic journeys into the unknown by the first people who crossed the Bering land bridge thousands of years ago to Roberta Bondar’s landmark voyage into space and Canada’s combat mission in Afghanistan, The Story of Canada is as vast in scope as the country itself. Alan Daniel’s evocative original paintings, as well as several hundred historical photographs, maps, paintings, posters and cartoons, make The Story of Canada as splendid to look at as it is fascinating to read. |
