The Dominion Annual Register and Review: For the Thirteenth Year of the Canadian Union, 1879 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Dominion Annual Register and Review: For the Thirteenth Year of the Canadian Union, 1879
In concluding the preface to the first volume of The Dominion Annual Register and Review, the Editor assured his readers that no trouble or pains would be spared to make it a work of permanent historical importance, replete with information on subjects of general interest, thoroughly impartial in its narration of events, and perfectly reliable in its data and its statements of fact. The hearty and unanimous endorsation which the work received from the press of the country, and the kind and encouraging words of approval accorded to the Editor by the leaders of political parties and by literary and public men generally, proved that the first volume, at all events, had justified the anticipations of his friends and had supplied an urgent public want.
In presenting the volume of the Register for the year 1879 - a year pregnant with events and measures of vital interest to the people of this Dominion - the Editor would direct the attention of his readers to the record of political events, which will be found to embrace not merely the political history of 1879 but a review of the Pacific Railway question from its inception, including the acquisition and system of administering the public lands of the Dominion; to the history of Education in the Dominion; the review of the progress of Literature and Art; and to the very full chapter on the Militia, as well as other titles and subjects which were not treated of in the first volume. He hopes these additions and improvements will make the Register still more useful and acceptable to the public.
Some delay has. occurred in the issue of the present volume, which, it is hoped, may be avoided in future.
