Enid Mallory weaves the stories of everyday Canadians into a poignant and revealing history of Canada in the twentieth century. Drawing on stories, memoirs, and recollections from people across the country, she offers a look at how life in Canada has changed over the decades, from coast to coast and from north to south. Events including the wars, the Dust Bowl, the Halifax explosion, the FLQ crisis, the discovery of oil, the Olympics, and the opening of the North are remembered alongside the price of butter, early home remedies, school days, and, of course, the weather. The Remarkable Years makes it clear that the history of Canada in the 20th century is not only about great people and events, but also about the lives of ordinary Canadians who worked, fought, built, and dreamed as their country grew and developed.
