Book description: McClelland and Stewart, Toronto, (1952).. 272 pp, large 8vo (9 1/8" H), hard cover - no dust jacket. "...designed mainly as a guide to what Canadians have said in the past about themselves or things Canadian, or from a Canadian point of view. I hope it may serve to some extent also as a s. upplement to the standard dictionaries of quotations, in which Canadians, for whatever cause, are conspicuous by their absence. It contains quotations and phrases from Canadian authors and sources on a variety of subjects, some of them exclusive. t o Canada, and also quotations from non-Canadians on subjects distinctly Canadaian." Arranged under subject headings with index to authors. Previous owners name in pencil on free front endpaper, soft corner crease on preliminary pages, minor ed. g e we ar, very light wrinkling at top/bottom of spine, minor soiling to edges of textblock. VG.
