Ring Around the Maple A Sociocultural History of Children and Childhoods in Canada, 19th and 20th Centuries

The result of decades' worth of research, Ring Around the Maple provides a rich account of the continuities and changes that shaped the lives of young people in Canada between the mid-nineteenth and early twenty-first centuries. Centring children's voices and informed by current debates in the field, this book is a welcome addition to scholarship on the history of childhood and to Canadian social history more generally." - Kristine Alexander, Associate Professor of History, University of Lethbridge, author of Guiding Modern Girls: Girlhood, Empire, and Internationalism in the 1920s and 1930s
