A Brief History of Canada "Beginning with the original inhabitants of North America and continuing through the exploration of the northern frontier and the rise and fall of the French and British empires to the development of a dynamic industrial nation at the beginning of the third millennium, "A brief history of Canada", second edition, provides a solid introduction to this unique land and people. Canada has thrived economically and socially since the turn of the 21st century, in spite of a faltering national party system and the prevalence of a scandal-plagued government. This new edition brings the reader up to date with recent developments and has been enhanced by the addition of new photographs and maps. New appendixes provide easy access to basic faces about Canada, a chronology of historic events, a bibliography, and suggestions for further reading that include the most recent research on the subject. A comprehensive index rounds out the book." --Descripción del editor. |
