An essential resource for every library
“The reviews, which range in length from 150 to 300 words, follow a pattern, moving from an overview to a critical analysis. ... Because these reviews are written in clear and jargon-free prose, they will be useful to students and members of the general public, as well as to teachers and librarians. This affordable guide brings together reliable information not otherwise available in a single source. ... Canadian schools and libraries will find them indispensable. This work is highly recommended for Canadians, it is also recommended for others interested in things Canadian.” — American Reference Book Annual
