Reviews

In Canadian Women on the Move, editors Beth Light and JoyParr provide a rare glimpse into the hearts and minds of Canadian women in the half century after Confederation. This second volume in the Women in Canadian History Documentary Series contains selections from a wide range of original sources which reflect the great variations in the female experience across regional, class, and ethnic lines. Extracts from letters, diaries, reminiscences, contracts, and court proceedings, to mention only a few of the many sources explored, furnish a finely textured, sensitive portrayal of the lives of Canadian women.
