Masterful, ambitious, and groundbreaking, this is a major new history of our country by one of our most respected thinkers and historians -- a book every Canadian should own. From the acclaimed biographer and historian Conrad Black comes the definitive history of Canada -- a revealing, groundbreaking account of the people and events that shaped a nation. Spanning 874 to 2014, and beginning from Canada's first inhabitants and the early explorers, this masterful history challenges our perception of our history and Canada's role in the world. From Champlain to Carleton, Baldwin and Lafontaine, to MacDonald, Laurier, and King, Canada's role in peace and war, to Quebec's quest for autonomy, Black takes on sweeping themes and vividly recounts the story of Canada's development from colony to dominion to country. Black persuasively reveals that while many would argue that Canada was perhaps never predestined for greatness, the opposite is in fact true: the emergence of a magnificent country, against all odds, was a remarkable achievement. Brilliantly conceived, this major new reexamination of our country's history is a riveting tour de force by one of the best writers writing today.

In 1942, the Canadian government forced more than 21,000 Japanese Canadians from their homes in British Columbia. They were told to bring only one suitcase each and officials vowed to protect the rest. Instead, Japanese Canadians were dispossessed, all their belongings either stolen or sold. The definitive statement of a major national research partnership, Landscapes of Injustice reinterprets the internment of Japanese Canadians by focusing on the deliberate and permanent destruction of home through the act of dispossession. All forms of property were taken. Families lost heirlooms and everyday possessions. They lost decades of investment and labour. They lost opportunities, neighbourhoods, and communities; they lost retirements, livelihoods, and educations. When Japanese Canadians were finally released from internment in 1949, they had no homes to return to. Asking why and how these events came to pass and charting Japanese Canadians' diverse responses, this book details the implications and legacies of injustice perpetrated under the cover of national security. In Landscapes of Injustice the diverse descendants of dispossession work together to understand what happened. They find that dispossession is not a chapter that closes or a period that neatly ends. It leaves enduring legacies of benefit and harm, shame and silence, and resilience and activism.

O Canada! Her Story takes you on a grand tour of Canada through the ages. Historical narratives and biographies tell her story in a creative and lively way that draws the reader in, grabbing his or her attention from the start. Learn about the people who dwelt in this land before the Europeans arrived, the vikings who discovered and temporarily settled this territory, the immigration and emigration of various people groups, the heroes who have shaped the face of this nation and the people who adore their beloved homeland.This book will be heartily enjoyed by Canadians, of course, but is a must-read for all students, especially Americans. Canada, the second largest of all nations on our planet, is also one of the most over-looked. Its history is all-but-forgotten in world history textbooks and its people largely ignored. This is surprising and unthinkable, for the story of this broad and gorgeous nation is also fascinating and world-changing.Here's what parents are saying about O Canada! Her Story: "O Canada! is a terrific "living history" book with true stories from across this beautiful country of ours. I am Canadian, and I learned quite a bit - even about things I'd never heard of before, which surprised me! My particular favourite is "Canada's School on Wheels" - about the first ever travel-schooling. We will be using this book in our homeschool history & geography studies this year, and I know the chapter on vikings (and their dogs) will be a big hit with my two children especially." - Kimberly C."O Canada! is a glimpse into the interesting stories in Canadian History. My Littles loved the story of Bjorn the Lundehund, and were amazed at the tale of Canada's School on Wheels. There are stories of Canadian History that even their history-buff Mom didn't know! Ms. Akins is a courageous writer to have taken unique approaches to each story, which is new and refreshing. I'm sure this will be a special book on our shelves for years to come!" - Shannon R.Included in O Canada!
