Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Canada and Its Provinces, Vol. 11 of 22: A History of the Canadian People and Their Institutions; The Dominionm, And, Missions; Arts and Letters
In the chapters which follow records are to be found of the religious, intellectual and artistic activities of the country..
They are at least evidences of Canada's aspirations to share in the spiritual civilization of the nations. In certain spheres of intellectual activity our achievement as a people surely falls short of that degree of excellence which we could wish to be regarded as the Canadian standard. But we have set up no lofty ideals and, until we have before us constantly a standard for contemplation, our attainment will seldom rise above the commonplace.
