- Abstract
- 'Thirty essays in 2 volumes represent a wide range of voices and points of view. Moving beyond a straightforward commemorative history, the contributors often tackle contentious issues and question previous, more conventional approaches and assumptions. Each essay represents a snapshot in time, focusing on a person, a trend or an event that has played a significant part in shaping Alberta. Contains maps, archival photographs and illustrations, and explanatory sidebars. Vol. 1 covers from human beginnings to Alberta's inauguration as a province in 1905, vol. 2 takes readers through the 20th century up to the 2005 centennial.' - Aurora

- Abstract
- 'Thirty essays in 2 volumes represent a wide range of voices and points of view. Moving beyond a straightforward commemorative history, the contributors often tackle contentious issues and question previous, more conventional approaches and assumptions. Each essay represents a snapshot in time, focusing on a person, a trend or an event that has played a significant part in shaping Alberta. Contains maps, archival photographs and illustrations, and explanatory sidebars. Vol. 1 covers from human beginnings to Alberta's inauguration as a province in 1905, vol. 2 takes readers through the 20th century up to the 2005 centennial.' - Aurora
