Ring Around the Maple

A Sociocultural History of Children and Childhoods in Canada, 19th and 20th Centuries

Beschreibung

Explores the condition of children in Canada from roughly 1850 to 2000, a time during which ‘the modern’ increasingly disrupted traditional ways. Cynthia Comacchio and Neil Sutherland trace the lives of children over this ‘long century’, synthesizing the rich interdisciplinary, often multi-disciplinary, literature that has emerged since the 1970s.
