Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Through Canada in Harvest Time: A Study of Life and Labour in the Golden West The literature devoted to Greater Britain in circulation in this country is not so voluminous as to render necessary any apology for increasing it by another volume. A visit to a public library will convince any one desiring information about the Colonies that the number of popular works on the subject is surprisingly small, and hardly commensurate with the importance of the Colonies themselves, or the interest taken in their history, their progress, and their latent resources. With regard to Canada in particular, the expansion of recent years has been so great and rapid that quite a new order of things has come into existence since the opening up of the Great West by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The majority of those who within the past eighteen years - since transcontinental transport was made possible - have settled in Manitoba, Alberta, and British Columbia, have been workers and pioneers who have had little leisure to record their achievements in harnessing the prairie, clearing the forest, and opening the mine.
