About this ebook
The relatively recent preoccupation of Western Canadian historians with their urban past has resulted in an imaginative new field of research and writing. The papers presented in this volume sample that research from a variety of perspectives: the development of local government; social life; businessmen and pressure groups; radical politics; and recent trends and perspectives.
