Description: "A country as vast as Canada is perhaps inevitably a country of regions. In The Regional Geography of Canada Robert M. Bone identifies six regions, each with a distinctive complex of features - physical, cultural, social, and economic - that determine its place within an overall structure that he explains in terms of a 'core/periphery' model. Examining those features in detail, he shows how the same model may be applied within each region." "This completely revised and updated third edition includes a wealth of new data on population, employment, and economic trends in each region. Expanded resource materials - vignettes, photographs, maps, graphs, and tables - complement the main narrative and facilitate understanding."--BOOK JACKET.
