Excerpt from Junior History of Canada Tats little book is intended mainly for children between the ages of ten and fourteen. No attempt has therefore been made to touch - except in merest outline - upon the constitutional side of Canadian History. Rather has the writer, adopting a simple conversational style, tried to present the history of Canada in the form, as far as possible, of a series of biographies. At the same time, that the child may get some idea of the relation between cause and effect and become conscious of growth and development in the history of the country, effort has been made to present - not a series of isolated pictures - but a coherent whole, of which each chapter forms a necessary and definite part. Stress has been laid on the work of the explorers and on its value to the country. To induce the child to read with atlas at hand, care has been taken - even when the reference is brief - to state somewhat definitely the route of the early voyageurs. Though the book is elementary in form, original sources of information have been consulted whenever possible, the diaries and letters of the leading people referred to having been read wherever such were available.

Excerpt from Under the Lily and the Rose, Vol. 1: A Short History of Canada for Children I have said that it should be read by children. But in the form in which it is presented, in its charming narrative style supplemented by beautiful illustrations, it would repay perusal by many who have long passed the days of childhood. To them, if they be unfamiliar with the romance it unfolds, it may serve to kindle a new interest in the land of Cartier and Champlain, in the land of the United Empire Loyalist, in the land of the prairies, the land of the mountains, and the land of the golden west. It is indeed a land to write about, to read of, and to live for, and to all who would wish to know more of it, I recommend this book.

Excerpt from Under the Lily and the Rose, Vol. 2: A Short History of Canada for Children It would seem strange in our own day to read an Official notice like this On Sunday next Divine Service according to the use of the Church of England will be held at the Récollet Church and continue for the summer season, beginning soon after eleven. The drum will beat each Sunday Shortly after half-past ten, and the Récollets' bell will ring to give notice of the English service the instant their own is ended. After the church was destroyed by fire the Church Of England service was held in the Jesuits' Chapel.

Excerpt from Canadian History Readings, Vol. 1 To make up for this want, a series of Leaflets will be published by the educational review, which will present the leading events and persons in our history in such a graphic way as to secure interest and at the same time give instruction. It is hoped that the effort to provide, at a low price, supplementary reading in Canadian history for schools will meet with encouragement at the outset, so that successive series of leaflets, covering all periods of our history and all sections of the Dominion, will be the result. Many leading writers of Canada have promised assistance for the present series, and the names of those who are contributing to the first number should be a guarantee of what may be expected in the future.
