The Coasts of Canada: A History,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
From the days before the arrival of the Europeans in North America, when the original inhabitants of our country made their way across a small land bridge, to todays arrival in supersonic jets, there is one sight that is shared by all new Canadians the countrys dramatic coastline. In this eclectic history of the seas elemental power over Canadas coastal peoples, Lesley Choyce brings to life the heroes and villains, the Aboriginals and the Europeans, the great and the humble, and the intrepid but illprepared explorers, who discovered, travelled through, and inhabited Canadas east, west, and north coasts. Brimming with shipwrecks and rescues, roguery and virtue, and stories of overcoming unimaginable odds, The Coasts of Canada is both idiosyncratic and iconoclastic. For once, writes Choyce, let the midcontinental tales of Canada be relatively mute, and let the narratives of a coastal people reshape our visions of who we are. As benevolent as it is brutal, the sea has controlled Canadas history and shaped the countrys collective identity. At once a book of discoveries and a record of misunderstandings, errors and misjudgements, The Coasts of Canada features the stories of hardy souls who persevere in difficult realms. It is also a plea to preserve the good things of the sea, the coastal communities, and the fragile environment that constitutes three borders of this country. A coastdweller himself, Lesley Choyce is an irrepressible storyteller. His first major work of history, the bestselling Nova Scotia: Shaped by the Sea, was praised by Laurier LaPierre in The Globe and Mail as a poets affair with the sea and an appealing work of storytelling. In The Coasts of Canada, he carries his enthusiasm for good stories to all of coastal Canada.
