Softcover. Etat : Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke. John Robert Colombo, a prolific Toronto writer, editor, and anthologist, has extensively explored Canadiana, delving into the lore, literature, history, culture, and character of Canada. His insatiable curiosity allows him to uncover national and international connections to various subjects. His latest work is the culmination of over fifty years of research, reading, and reflection. Previously, he published a trilogy of question-and-answer books, including 1,000 Questions about Canada and its sequels, which were well-received. This new book adopts a similar format, featuring concise questions paired with in-depth answers. It covers the Canadian past, present, and future, organized under four categories: People, Places, Things, and Ideas, with a detailed index for easy reference. While it serves as a popular reference work, the book is designed to provoke inquiry and surprise among readers who may know a bit about Canada but not as much as the author. Readers are invited to engage with Colombo's insights and challenge their own knowledge of this fascinating country. N° de réf. du vendeur 1a82d13c-6231-4ce9-947f-d5dfe515de62
