"Between 1896 and 1914, the Canadian government carried out a vigorous programme in central Europe, Britain and the United States to persuade people to immigrate to the Canadian west. In this book we see all the paraphernalia of the government advertising campaign, the journey from the settlers' homelands, the development of western cities and industries and, above all, the people whose lives transformed- and were transformed by- the Canadian west" --cover.
