Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Good. First Edition. "Deals with a large group of immigrants to Alberta whose experience has been previously virtually unrecorded. Polish settlers have resided in Alberta since the 1890's, have made their mark in virtually all parts of the province, and now form its 7th largest ethnic group. This book's rel…iance on the memoirs of people who experienced the events themselves, rather than on the second generations' account of their parents lives gives the book its immediacy and its interest. This is history as it should be - warts and all. The general reader will find moving dramatic personal interest stories; accounts of courage and flexibility, of pettiness and exploitation. Professional students of history will find material relevant to their own particular interests" - Dr. Howard Palmer. 487 pages. Index. Black and white reproductions of archival photos. Average wear. Binding intact. Moderate quantity of markings to contents. A sound copy of this invaluable genealogical reference.; 8vo.
