About this book

There is a richness and distinctiveness to the vast range of topics, events, issues, and ideas that comprise a nation's social history. The demands for material relevant to Canadian social history have been matched only by the frustrations raised by the inaccessibility. It is the purpose of this new series to help meet these demands.
