History of Canada

A Captivating Guide to Canadian History

By: Captivating History

Narrated by: Jay Herbert

What do you know about the history of Canada?

You might think you know a lot about Canada - especially if you happen to live in North America. But in truth, it’s surprising how little most of us know about Canadian history. Even though Canada is just across the border from the United States, Canada tends to get unfairly overshadowed. Nevertheless, Canada’s history is a vibrant one.

Recorded Canadian history begins with European contact in the 1500s, but there are plenty of rich legends and folklore passed down by Native North Americans that fill in the gaps. This audiobook follows the threads of the many civilizations that made up Canada and their ultimate merging together to forge the rich tapestry that makes up Canada today.

The history of Canada is more than first meets the eye.

In this groundbreaking treatise on Canadian history, you will discover:

• The origins of the First Nations, the artifacts they left behind, and how they are faring today
• The early French and English settlements and how they interacted with the First Nations
• Canada’s participation in the world wars and the bravery of its soldiers on the battlefield
• Canada’s role during the Cold War and how it acted as one of the first defenses against nuclear threats to North America
• Canadian independence and how the French speakers in Quebec sought their own independence as well
• And so much more!

our great northern neighbours

having canadian blood in me, I've often been interested in the history of Canada. little is taught in American schools--even those along the border. it was nice to learn about history, outside of interactions encountered during pre n post revolutionary America.

I was only slightly disappointed by the lack of a bit more recent history. mainly: when n how did Canada introduce/form its most recent provinces? one day I'm leaving school with the geographic knowledge of certain places. cut to a few yrs later, helping a younger sibling with homework, and surprising both me and my mother (whose own mother was canadian) with brand new areas. I think that should be included, should this book ever be amended.

jay Herbert was better, this time around, bur still had some annoying times. since this is a very recent publication, I hope this means he's been working hard at improving.

another fine book by captivating history. I found learning about the history of Canada to be quite interesting I never realized how many similarities there were to America

Early Canadian history

I’m just diving into the history of Canada and I really enjoyed this audiobook. I thought the performance was great, and overall I give it five stars. Now I’m looking for a book to explain Canadian politics a bit more because I don’t understand the parliament system well.

Exactly what I was looking for…..

Being a US citizen, I just found myself wondering about the history of Canada. I really didn’t know how the country came to be. This did an absolutely perfect job explaining it all. The narrator was excellent. I highly recommend.

ok overview of some canadian history

As a canadian who wanted to learn more about canadian history, I didn't learn much, but it was an ok refresher of certain basics.

The narrator has a nice voice, but a weird up talking quirk that is a bit distracting.
