The Polish people in Canada: A Visual History - Makowski, William

Clean, tight, unmarked; spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; Makowki researched the subject of Polish Canadians for more than a quarter of a century. Always he felt he was in a race against time to talk with people before memories were lost, and letters, photographs and records destroyed. For the story of Polish immigration and settlement in Canada is not told in statistics or official records. It is through the accumulated human stories of families held together, of homes, churches and communities built, and of a contribution to their new homeland that is just cause for pride and celebration. With 100,000 words of text illustrated with more than 300 photographs.
