Reviews
'An elegant synthesis of a great deal of work on Canadian history.'
Richard Wilbur:
'A masterful handling of the complexities of trade, population shifts, and social tastes.'
Allan Mills:
'A very readable book: insightful and fluent of style and sometimes sardonic and pungent in expression.'
Donald Swainson:
'The research is good, the writing is excellent, the judgements are sound. Canada 1900-1945 is a first-rate survey. It deserves a broad and appreciative readership.'
