Description

This collection of articles and extracts from books and periodicals describes in detail the opportunities in Western Canada for British women emigrants.

'Women Wanted' was the message conveyed by Canadian officials, journalists, and public-spirited women who travelled across Canada and reported on their findings. - from Amzon
