"The first volume of a sweeping twelve-volume journalistic history of Alberta in the 20th century provides the historical context for the creation of the province in 1905. The book covers the history of the Plains people, Hudson's Bay Company and the fur trade, American Civil War, Canadian Confederation, building of the Canadian Pacific, Riel Rebellion, and the long struggle of the North West Territories to achieve provincehood. The format is magazine-like, filled with hundreds of fascinating historical photographs, stories, maps, illustrations, and sidebars that complement the narrative."--
