Beschreibung

'All Afloat: A Chronicle of Craft and Waterways' by William Wood is an account of Canadian navigation history prior to the 1910s. Canada's unique relationship with its waterways is explored, with the St. Lawrence basin taking center stage due to its size and importance in the country's development. Wood details the use of canoes by the indigenous population long before the arrival of European settlers, and the subsequent construction of sailing vessels and steamers that allowed for the expansion of trade and transportation. The book also covers the fishing industry and the role of waterways in Canadian administration and navy.
