Book Description
Excerpt from Picturesque Canada, Vol. 1: The Country as It Was and Is Though the Preface comes first, it is usually written last; and to this custom, for Special reasons, picturesque canada is no exception. Now, that the last page of Of the work has been written, the time has come to explain and give thanks. I was reluctant to undertake the editorship, but consented because, being in sympathy with Canadian aspirations and knowing Canada from ocean to ocean, . I believed that a work that would represent its characteristic Scenery and the history and life of its people would not only make -us better known to ourselves and to strangers, but would also stimulate national sentiment and contribute to the rightful development of the nation. The favour with which the work has been received is due not merely to its artistic merit, but to the growing patriotic spirit of the people, and their desire, therefore, to see faithfully reproduced some of the scenes of the land they love.
