A History of the Canadian Peoples cover

The most accessible and balanced text for introductory Canadian history courses This fascinating introduction to the history of Canada from pre-contact to the present weaves together social, political, cultural, and economic histories in a seamless narrative to help readers appreciate the remarkable people and events that have shaped this country.

^"Both concise and thorough, this wonderfully detailed text would be an asset to any survey Canadian history class. It is beautifully illustrated and features a number of interesting and engaging sidebars." * Barry McKenzie, St. Francis Xavier University *
This is a comprehensive text that details the complex nature and patterns of communities and peoples that went on to form Canada and is engaged with current studies of Indigenous, gender, social and political history. It pulls interesting examples from the past and illustrates the general histories with specific stories, authors, and examples to provide flavour and root it in the lived experiences of people of various backgrounds." * Greg Stott, University College of the North *
