Fabulous Canada Guide
A colourful cocktail of attractions!
From the rocky capes of Newfoundland to the untouched islands of British Columbia, Canada offers unrivalled natural, cultural and historical attractions. All of these wonders have finally been brought together in a single book, Ulysses’ Fabulous Canada guide, which includes hundreds of inviting photos and detailed, accurate descriptions, to help you discover them.
This magnificent full-colour guide offers a complete panorama of Canada’s provinces and territories. The deft combination of high-quality photos, precise descriptions of major attractions, rated using a star system, and a historical and cultural introduction to the destinations covered will appeal to all readers. Fabulous Canada will satisfy travellers who want to plan a trip and anyone looking for a beautiful gift to give. Part keepsake and part practical guide, this one-of-a-kind work will dazzle you with its profiles of some of Canada’s treasures, whether they are must-see destinations or off the beaten path. And if you can’t visit them, Fabulous Canada offers them up on a silver platter.
A solid historical portrait, illustrated with archival photos, presents the country’s many faces. The guide also features maps with clear, readable graphics in a contemporary layout and sidebars that offer extra tidbits on lesser known themes and events. You’ll learn about the Malecites, a New Brunswick First Nation, the West Edmonton Mall, an enormous shopping centre in Alberta, and the Chilkoot Trail, a trail travelled by gold diggers in British Columbia that crosses the Yukon and ends in Alaska. The last section of the guide looks at major topics such as architecture, the seasons, wildlife, plant life, art and culture.
See the Canadian provinces as you’ve never seen them before with Fabulous Canada, a guide for imagining, planning or remembering your trip. It is available at Ulysses and in fine bookstores everywhere for $29.95. 288 pages in colour. On the Web: www.ulyssesguides.com, the largest online travel bookstore in the country.
