All too often Americans dismiss Canadians as a nondescript people living above the 49th parallel with a boring history. On the contrary, as Riendeau (Univ. of Toronto) demonstrates in his credible analysis of the Canadian past, Canada has a history as vibrant as any in the world. The book covers a wide range of topics--geographical features, the Norse discovery, the fall of New France, nationhood, and finally, the modern era. Riendeau has written a good text enriched by photos, maps, and a bibliography for further reading. This is a worthy addition for public and academic libraries.

Review

" . . . that's what is good about this book . . . it's the leaping-off point to be able to go and read more. But to be able to summarize everything so well I think is a huge benefit." - Talking Books, CBC This Morning " . . . a concise, highly readable introduction to the growth and development of a unique land and its people. In this single volume narrative, veteran historian Roger Riendeau masterfully surveys the origins of Canada from its First people through European contact, the rise and fall of the French empire, English conquest, the road to nationhood and the struggle of a complex society to the end of the second millennium. . . a readily accessible reference for students and an engaging narrative for anyone who wants to learn more about this diverse and often enigmatic land." - George Bonavia, "From My Bookshelf" "...a convenient package for students looking for a comprehensive introduction to Canadian history." - Canadian Book Review Annual
