Recenzje

This is a comprehensive text that details the complex nature and patterns of communities and peoples that went on to form Canada and is engaged with current studies of Indigenous, gender, social and political history. It pulls interesting examples from the past and illustrates the general histories with specific stories, authors, and examples to provide flavour and root it in the lived experiences of people of various backgrounds."
