Descripción

Records of Our History Taking Root: Canada from 1700 to 1760; by André Vachon, M. R. S. C. with the assistance of Victorin Chabot and André Desrosiers; Public Archives Canada, 1985. Taking Root is the second volume published by the Public Archives of Canada in the series Records of Our History. This series is intended for both students and the general public. It enables readers to expand their knowledge of the past and become acquainted with the sources of their history. Whereas the first volume in this series, Dreams of Empire covered the period from the discovery of Canada to 1700, Taking Root gives an overview of our history from 1700 to 1760. The text is beautifully illustrated with 207 reproductions of archival records maps, engravings, paintings, seals, medals, manuscripts, and printed materials from 38 Canadian, American, and European institutions. There are 3 other titles; the first in the series covers Canada before 1700 published in 1982, the third 1760 to 1815 published in 1988 and the fourth 1849 to 1873 was published in 1992. All volumes are currently available by this bookseller. This large volume, 312 pages measuring 278mm X 210mm, is in fine condition in a near-fine dust jacket that is now enclosed in a protective mylar wrap. This is a high-class work, printed on heavy, calendered paper stock. With the effort that when into creating the content and the high production cost, I am surprised that the market price isn t much higher. N° de ref. del artículo 2238c
