Toronto: Natural Heritage Books, 2004. Soft cover. Near Fine. 8vo. SIGNED by author to title page. Soft cover. 303 p.p. B&W photos and maps in-text. Bump to top edge of front cover and upper corner of text block. The Canada Company, with its base in England, was responsible for settling over two million acres of land in Upper Canada. Author Robert C. Lee focuses on the Huron Tract and on the dominant personalities (many of them Scottish-born) ranging from John Galt and Tiger Dunlop to the bishops Macdonell and Strachan, who had an impact on the company's operations. The politics of the day, coupled with the diversity of the players, create an astounding blend of vision, intrigue and mischief as a backdrop to the bottom-line profit aspirations of the company's shareholders. The founding of towns - Guelph, Goderich, Stratford, St. Mary's and others in the area - is one of the legacies of the company.
