520 |a"Professor Creighton's first chapters discuss the influences which, before Confederation, affected all the British North American colonies alike. In succeeding chapters he relates the economic history—roughly for the period 1850-67—of the Canadas, the Maritimes, the prairies and the Pacific coast settlements. The second half of the study deals with the economic aims of Confederation; public finance before 1867; the financial settlement reached in that year; and finally the first consequences of that settlement"--Editorial Foreword, page 6.
