Ewart; illustrated by b/w. photo's; an appeal for Canadian Unity in spite of any differences between language, religion or geographical & regional means of living:- "A belief which is quite common among English-speaking Canadians is that the French Canadian is, if I may use the expression, France-French. whereas he is Canadian French only.

In this respect there is no 'French Canadian point of view' for it is a Canadian point of view."; a tight copy with some dust to page edges; 178 pages plus index. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
