Excerpt from Three Centuries of Canadian Story: From John Cabot to John FranklinOf Canada, and the rich chronicles Of Francis Park man. Without these treasuries of fact and legend no writer could hope to deal adequately with the history and romance of early Canada.It is needless to say that these stories, with a few exceptions, are not to be found in any school-books. They belong mostly to the by-ways and interspaces Of history, but they are not for that reason to be neglected, if the whole scheme Of our origins and of our national progress is to be thoroughly understood. The narratives in this book are, it is believed, no insignificant portion Of the warp and woof of our nation's history, lending tone and colour to the more sober and enduring strands of the main web.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
