this book was very good in its second half. It starts new stories and finishes the old ones. Even though it is an anthology book, it does have a theme. Its theme is exploration. Each story is about different people exploring the unknown in Canadas wilderness. If you enjoy historical books or adventure books then this is the boat for you.

A history of Canada in ten maps is very good in its first half. It tells the story of the Vikings first travelling to Canada, Cartier's first expedition to Canada, and Champlain founding Quebec. The book is told in first person, with the author telling you about the history in his own words. If you like books that teach you history or you just want to learn more about the discovery of Canada, then this is the book for you.
