The Illustrated History of Canada was the first comprehensive, authoritative one-volume history of the nation. The text-from seven of Canada's leading historians-and the pictures-hundreds of engravings, lithographs, cartoons, maps, posters, and photographers-together create a sweeping chronicle of Canada from its earliest times to yesterday's news. Three years in the making, and fully updated to bring readers into the 21st century, the new edition includes contemporary material on such topics as the rise of small government, the recognition of Native land claims, and Canada's role in the post-Cold War 'peace.'In order to mark the 15th anniversary of its original publication, The Illustrated History of Canada is once again being offered in an expanded trim size. Fifteen years after its debut, The Illustrated History of Canada remains a must-have reference guide for all Canadians interested in the history-and the future-of our country.
