an introduction to Canadian economic history
de Harold Adams Innis, Harold A. Innis, Harold A. Innis, Arthur J. Ray, Harold Adams Innis, Innis H A · Publicada por primera vez en 1970
"Innis has long been regarded as one of Canada's foremost historians, and in The Fur Trade in Canada he presents several histories in one: social history through the clash between colonial and aboriginal cultures; economic history in the development of the West as a result of Eastern colonial and European needs; and transportation history in the case of the displacement of the canoe by the York boat. Political history appears in Innis's examination of the nature of French-British rivalry and the American Revolution; and business history is represented in his detailed account of the Hudson's Bay and Northwest Companies and the industry that played so vital a role in the expansion of Canada."--BOOK JACKET.
