Description: "In an extraordinary discovery, part of Canada's missing heritage has been found at the British Library in London. Among this collection of 40,000 items of Canadiana are 4,000 lost photographs dating from the period of 1895 to 1924. This is the story of that collection, those photographs and, more importantly, the story in pictures of Canada at a time when the new nation - bursting with hope and promise - was emerging."--front jacket flap.
