Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canadian History Readings, Vol. 1 To make up for this want, a series of Leaflets will be published by the educational review, which will present the leading events and persons in our history in such a graphic way as to secure interest and at the same time give instruction. It is hoped that the effort to provide, at a low price, supplementary reading in Canadian history for schools will meet with encouragement at the outset, so that successive series of leaflets, covering all periods of our history and all sections of the Dominion, will be the result. Many leading writers of Canada have promised assistance for the present series, and the names of those who are contributing to the first number should be a guarantee of what may be expected in the future.

It is not intended to fill the place of an exhaustive treatise on the subject, but it contains in systematic order the facts to be remembered by students.

Pupils and students will find that, by the aid of this book, they can very readily recall the facts of Canadian History. Attention is directed to the topical arrangement of the events. They are not given in Diary or Day-book order, but are classified under appropriate headings. This will enable the student to learn them more intelligently as well as more easily. The Students' Review Outlines form an important feature of the book. By means of them pupils can themselves test their acquaintance with the subject. These outlines will be of special value to those who are studying without a teacher. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canadian History Notes The object of this little book is to awaken an interest in Canadian History to give the boys and girls of our schools a simple yet definite statement of the cause, incident and result of the impor tant events of the history of their own land; to lead them to see the steps by which Canada rose to her present proud position to see the struggle which won each of our great privileges of self government and the defects which each privilege remedied to lead them to honor and imitate the noble men and women who gave their time, their talents and their lives to work out the destiny of Canada - men whose lives teach us that Canada. Will become what her sons make her. At the same time it is hoped that the little work will be. A boon to teachers who are burdened with the many subjects of the school curriculum and the thousand interests of the school room. The two simple little sketches give a bird's-eye view of the whole period, refer to topics which are discussed in the book, and proceeding from the general to the particular, they arouse curiosity while they engender a spirit of research.

Download or read book Canada and the Canadian Question Classic Reprint written by Goldwin Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canada and the Canadian Question Where the subject is so complex and so disjointed, to devise a satisfactory arrangement is not easy. Writers and readers of the history of the Dominion too well know how wanting it is in unity. For the special purpose of this work, which is neither elaborate description nor detailed history, but the presentation of a case and of a problem, it seemed best first, briefly to delineate the Provinces, which are the factors of the case, then to sketch their political history, leading up to Confederation, then to give an account of the Confederation itself, with its political sequel, up to the present time, and finally to propound the problem. The general reader, if any one answering to that description ever takes up this work, may skip the chapter on the Federal polity, the subject of which to the reader specially interested in Colonial institutions will probably seem the most important of all. To impart anything like liveliness to a discussion of the British North America Act one must have the touch of Voltaire.

Download or read book The Pageant of Canadian History Classic Reprint written by Anne Merriman Peck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pageant of Canadian History The unconventional pattern of this book requires some ex planation for readers who expect to find the historical narrative proceeding chronologically from year to year. I have seen the vigorous history of Canada in big sweeps of movement; the dramatic period of French exploration and the life of New France; the pursuit of fur which carried explorers and traders all the way to the Pacific; the growth of a few small British colonies into the Dominion of Canada; tllen the winning of the west and the advance to modern nationhood. This method in volves some shuffling back and forth in time, but it makes clear the motive power of ideas and ambitions that urged the people on from one period to another of their history. The book is as the title indicates, a pageant, a story of the land and people, rather than a historian's study. It has been written for my fel low Americans, to pass on my discovery of the vivid history of our northern neighbors and my admiration for them. The book is also offered to Canadians in the hope that they will accept this interpretation of their story by an enthusiastic friend across the border. I wish to express my appreciation to many Canadi ans of town and country who welcomed me with so much friendliness; to librarians, and to officers of 'a variety of institu tions who courteously gave their time and interest to help me with information.

Download or read book Junior History of Canada Classic Reprint written by Lilian Margaret Hendrie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Junior History of Canada Tats little book is intended mainly for children between the ages of ten and fourteen. No attempt has therefore been made to touch - except in merest outline - upon the constitutional side of Canadian History. Rather has the writer, adopting a simple conversational style, tried to present the history of Canada in the form, as far as possible, of a series of biographies. At the same time, that the child may get some idea of the relation between cause and effect and become conscious of growth and development in the history of the country, effort has been made to present - not a series of isolated pictures - but a coherent whole, of which each chapter forms a necessary and definite part. Stress has been laid on the work of the explorers and on its value to the country. To induce the child to read with atlas at hand, care has been taken - even when the reference is brief - to state somewhat definitely the route of the early voyageurs. Though the book is elementary in form, original sources of information have been consulted whenever possible, the diaries and letters of the leading people referred to having been read wherever such were available.
