Bag om Historical Atlas of Canada

Maps tells the story in this innovative volume, and the story of Canada they tell is profoundly engrossing and rewarding.

Included are maps by the founder of New France, Samuel de Champlain, by Philip Turnor and Peter Fidler. There are English maps and French maps; Spanish maps and Russian maps; American, Italian and Dutch maps as well as maps drawn by Native people such as the Beothuk, Blackfoot and Cree. Canada’s colourful past unfolds in sumptuous visual detail—history seen from a whole new perspective.
