 Book Reviews - Canada: A Nation Unfolding (Ontario Edition).
Of the seven textbooks that were produced for the new Ontario Grade Ten "Canada in the Twentieth Century" course, Canada: A Nation Unfolding is the best organized, the most visually appealing-from the perspective of a student-and the text that has the best accompanying unit and chapter activities.
Unlike most of the other efforts, in which the first unit covers 1891 to 1928 (way too much terrain to be covered in one unit), the first unit in Canada: A Nation Unfolding begins at 1896 and ends at 1914 with the beginning of the First World War.
However, the symbols which brilliantly capture the essence of Canada are the photos of canoeing on a lake in "cottage country", kids playing road hockey, a mother and child tobogganing down a hill, and the doughnut.
