Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada : a history in documents, 1909-2009 / [By] Janice Cavell. : FR5-43/2009
It is now forty-two years since the first volume in the series Documents on Canadian external relations (DCER) was published. To date, twenty-seven volumes have been completed, covering the period from the founding of the Department of External Affairs in 1909 up to 1960. They amply document the political issues that occupied Canada’s diplomats during those years, but inevitably, for reasons of space, many fascinating accounts showing the more human side of life in the department had to be excluded. This book combines some of the most vividly written and interesting documents from the published volumes, other more personal and colourful items selected from the wealth of material held at Library and Archives Canada, more recent records taken both from archival holdings and from the files still retained by Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada, and a few articles that first appeared in the magazine bout de papier.
