The History of the Dominion of Canada (Classic Reprint) by W. H. P. Clement Pdf

Excerpt from The History of the Dominion of Canada The subject of Canadian history has been usually treated in the textbooks authorized in elementary and secondary schools from a Provincial rather than a Dominion standpoint. Such works at best do not meet our present need, as they necessarily fail to give adequate recognition to all sections of the country, and as they often contain exaggerated notions of provincial matters. It was thought by many teachers that this mode of treatment should be changed and a wider view presented of the history and consolidation of the Dominion. In 1889 the Quebec Provincial Association of Teachers discussed the feasibility of preparing a history of Canada with this object in view, and in the following year the Teachers' Associations of Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia, also considered the same subject. In July, 1891, representatives of the different provinces met at the Education Department in Toronto, for a further consideration of the question. Nevertheless, it was not until July, 1892, at the meeting of the Dominion Educational Association in Montreal, that a scheme was formulated for the preparation of a text-book by competition, and a committee was appointed to examine such manuscripts as might be offered.

The Canadian Dominion (Classic Reprint) by Charles Marshall Pdf

Excerpt from The Canadian Dominion I AM not conscious that this book is written with undue partiality. I am certain that I entered Canada without prepossessions in favour of the country. During a tour of five months through the Dominion, I endeavoured to judge fairly of the present condition social, commercial, religious, and political of the country, and of its future prospects. I have tried to give the result of my im pressions and inquiries in the simplest and most condensed manner possible.

The Dominion of Canada and the Canadian Pacific Railway (Classic Reprint) by William Wilson Pdf

Excerpt from The Dominion of Canada and the Canadian Pacific Railway Now assuming, and I think that the assumption is a fair one, that the longevity and fecundity of the people of Canada are not less than of the people of England, the ratio of increase in Canada should be equal to that of England, and taking into account the fact that between 1860 and 1870 there was a large emigration from England and a large immigration into Canada, it is evident that the ratio of increase in Canada ought in that period to have been greater than in England - as we have seen the Dominion census shows it to have been less.

The Great Dominion by George R. Parkin Pdf

Excerpt from The Great Dominion: Studies of Canada Canadian life, the most important of the problems which confront Canadians, and those external relations which have the greatest general interest. It has been a satisfaction to find that throughout Canada they have, in their original form, been very generally accepted as fair statements of the questions with which they deal. As I have never hesitated to point out the drawbacks and limitations of the country as well as its advantages, this approval seems to indicate that Canadians have reached a point where they are quite willing that the merits and defects of their country should be freely weighed together. The fact marks an important stage in the growth of a self-reliant feeling in a young community. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Short History of the Dominion of Canada, From 1500 to 1878 (Classic Reprint) by Charles R. Tuttle Pdf

Excerpt from Short History of the Dominion of Canada, From 1500 to 1878 I present the portraits of the Honorable W. E. Gladstone, and the not less honorable Mary A. Livermore, si side because I consider them the two most interest ing representatives of their respective sexes now living. If Mr. Gladstone is not the greatest living scholar and statesman, a great portion of mankind are mistaken. His abilities m the aggregate have no equal in the whole range of Englishmen from the earliest times to the present day. He is one of the few men whose great popularity is not based so much upon his mastery of one particular department as upon his mastery of many depart ments. His specialty appears to be that to which he turns his attention, whether it be art, science, literature, finance, or the higher questions of moral and political philosophy. His! Statesmanship has given a higher dignity to the Liberal party than it has hitherto enjoyed, and his scholarship has added a greater solidity to English literature. Mrs. Livermore cannot, in any sense, be compared to Mr. Gladstone, except that both are moral reformers. She is not a woman of great intellectual attainments, though her general information is creditable to one of ordinary mental powers. She is remark able rather for the strength and correctness of her convictions, and for the influence which she sways by the eloquence of an earnest life, than for her natural endowments or mental acquire ments. Her life thus far is a monument of good deeds, and her sex will hereafter for many generations reap the fruits of her noble efforts.

The History of North America by W. Bennett Munro Pdf

Excerpt from The History of North America: Canada and British, North America The history of the United States is so interwoven with the history of Canada that every American must possess a working knowledge of the progress made by the Dominion if he would properly understand many of the important phases of the development of the United States. It is, how ever, from the Canadian and not the American standpoint that the account of the history of the British possessions in North America must be viewed if one is to have a correct estimate of the reciprocal influences exerted by the United States of America and the Dominion of Canada and a fair judgment of the policies and achievements of these two great governments.
