關於本有聲書

Pioneers in Canada by Harry Johnston is a comprehensive and informative account of the early explorers and settlers of Canada. Johnston, a British explorer and colonial administrator, was fascinated by Canada's history and culture, and he traveled extensively throughout the country to research his book. The book begins with the arrival of the Vikings in North America in the 10th century, and it traces the history of European exploration and settlement in Canada through the 17th and 18th centuries. Johnston profiles many of the most famous pioneers in Canadian history, including Jacques Cartier, Samuel de Champlain, Henry Hudson, Alexander Mackenzie, and Simon Fraser. He also discusses the many challenges that these pioneers faced, such as the harsh climate, the difficult terrain, and the hostility of some of the indigenous peoples. However, Johnston also emphasizes the resilience and determination of the pioneers, and he argues that they played a vital role in shaping Canada into the country it is today.
