- Summary
- This book is as it says a "salute to Canada and Canadian achievement." It includes some well known, several lesser known and some unexpected Canadian firsts. A must for anyone who wants to understand more about Canada and does not want a textbook like book. It is well organized with short free standing sections and entries. In short, it is a very interesting book that gives a breif overview of Canadian achievement.
