The canals of Canada / by John P. Heisler. : R61-2/7-64E-PDF
"The development of transportation and communication is one of the epic and continuing themes in Canadian history. Any account of it must depict man's conquest over nature — of his attempt to survive in an area of vast distances, small population and few goods. Such an account must also show the economic, political and social considerations, along with imperial and foreign relations, which influenced this development. In this work it is intended to consider but one aspect of this vast theme; the significant role played by canals in the development of transportation and communication in Canada"--Introduction, page 1.
