But the road to contemporary Canada is a winding one  a story of division and conflict as well as union and accommodation.  In Canadas Odyssey  renowned scholar Peter H. Russell provides an expansive  accessible account of Canadian history from the pre-Confederation period to the present day. By focusing on what he calls the \"three pillars\" of English Canada  French Canada  and Aboriginal Canada  Russell advances an important view of our country as one founded on and informed by \"incomplete conquests\". It is the very incompleteness of these conquests that have made Canada what it is today  not just a multicultural society but a multinational one.  Featuring the scope and vivid characterizations of an epic novel  Canadas Odyssey is a magisterial work by an astute observer of Canadian politics and history  a perfect book to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Confederation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45280051560501,"sku":"ByrdShop_1487502044","price":67.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781487502041.jpg?v=1780618211","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/canadas-odyssey-a-country-based-on-incomplete-conquests-9781487502041","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
