Notes


Yeigh’s travel narrative records a journey across Canada in the years immediately preceding the First World War, beginning in Nova Scotia and continuing westward to the coast of British Columbia. Arranged largely on a province-by-province basis, the work describes the landscapes, cities, transportation networks, industries, and settlement patterns of the Dominion. Frank Yeigh, a Canadian civil servant, lecturer, and compiler of statistical and promotional works on Canada, wrote for a general readership.
