Destinies: Canadian History Since Confederation

"Destinies" is a well written, highly readable, clearly organized, and richly illustrated history of Canada from 1867 to the present. It incorporates the history of the four major groups that settled Canada: the First Nations, the French-speaking and English-speaking Canadians, and non-British and non-French immigrants. The text provides the latest research, and presents a balanced approach of political, economic, social and cultural history. It also incorporates historiographical debate boxes entitled 'Where Historians Disagree', as well as individual and community portraits, time lines, introductory overviews at the beginning of each section, up-to-date bibliographies at the end of each chapter, plus references to relevant websites, and a comprehensive index.
