Description
Excerpt from Canada: Its Rise and Progress HE story of Canada possesses many of the elements of romance, and is one of deep interest for the whole of the anglo-saxon race. It was on Canadian soil that the long and deadly struggle between the French and English took place. From the time of Champlain to that which is immortally associated with the names of Wolfe and Montcalm, the history of the Dominion presents one long series of stirring and memorable events. In the following pages an attempt has been made to trace that history, omitting nothing which is of real native or European import ance while due note has been taken of the growth of Provincial and Federal interests. The object has been to present a succinct narrative of the rise and growth of Canada from the earliest times to the present day.
