Abstract
"Canadians and the Natural Environment to the Twenty-First Century provides an ideal foundation for undergraduates and general readers on the history of Canada's complex environmental issues. Through clear, easy-to-understand case studies, Neil Forkey integrates the ongoing interplay of humans and the natural world into national, continental, and global contexts. Forkey's engaging survey addresses significant episodes from across the country over the past four hundred years: the classification of Canada's environments by its earliest inhabitants, the relationship between science and sentiment in the Victorian era, the shift towards conservation and preservation of resources in the early twentieth century, and the rise of environmentalism and issues involving First Nations at the end of the century. Canadians and the Natural Environment to the Twenty-First Century provides an accessible synthesis of the most important recent work in the field, making it a truly state-of-the-art contribution to Canadian environmental history."--Publisher's website.

Abstract
Pertains to the work of Canadian artist and transitional figure, J.W. Beatty. The author, Dorothy M. Farr explores the dichotomy between the genuine sensitivity of Beatty’s art, and the more chaotic life of the artist himself. The publication includes lengthy quotations from the artist in an effort to convey the voice from Beatty himself. Farr shares the history of J.W. Beatty, as well as his art that speaks for itself.
