Canada

by Tim Jepson

Published 28 May 1992
This guide includes details on the business of getting to Canada, with information about tour operators, airlines and all the options whether you're going on holiday, visiting friends or relatives or travelling on business. For covering the vast distances of Canadian territory, this guide gives a run-down on the various means available - by bus, train, plane, car, thumb or bicyle. As for staying when you get there, it provides all the details you need on motels, B&B, hostels, farm stays and camping. And unless you're a confirmed urbanite, Canada's great outdoors offers multiple attractions, from backpacking in the mountain parks to fishing, canoeing and of course skiing (and the rules of the country's spectator sports - ice hockey, Canadian football and baseball). The book gives inforamtion on each of Canada's major cities. Every corner of the country is explored and revealed, from Newfoundland in the east to the Yukon in the wild Arctic West and from the sadly unremarkable town of Medicine Hat to the Indian heritage site of Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump.
Throughout the book there's analysis of Canada's complex political and social mix and good biographical background on the personalities, living and dead, that have helped shape the country. The book also includes coverage of Canadian wildlife, history, books and language.
