Description

In this lavishly illustrated new publication the author of Early Life in Upper Canada and other famous histories of pioneer days, relates the story of the Canadian farm and the farmers from the primitive to the machine age. Farm life and farm processes are pictured in fascinating detail, and Mr. Guillet quotes generously from books, newspapers, letters and hitherto unpublished archives material, using the words of those who actually witnessed the life of other days -- the pioneers themselves, or the more observant of the numerous travellers who visited Canada during the period. The 450 illustrations contained in the two volumes of this work include many never before reproduced. A detailed list of contents and a full index enable the reader to find readily any topic of pioneer life to which he wishes to refer. Volume 1- 373p. illus / Volume 2- 390p. Illus bibliography, index. illustrated end papers. This two volume set in almost new condition is protected in the original slightly scuffed slipcase. NOTE: very heavy [2.1 kg]
