Notes

This volume examines the political, economic, and practical development of the railway from the circumstances leading to British Columbia’s entry into Confederation and the federal commitment to a transcontinental line through its construction and operation to 1921. Innis considers the railway’s financing, construction, administration, and relationship to the development of western Canada.
