Two aspects of Canada’s past. ABOVE: A statue of a Viking, one of the people who may have been Canada’s first settlers. The statue is at Gimli, on the shore of Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba. BELOW: The Chateau Frontenac in Quebec, part of Canada’s rich French heritage. The illustrations come from “Canada: A Symphony in Colour,” by Grace Deutsch and Avanthia Swan (Collins, 1982, 226 pp, $29.95). Canada, to New Zealanders, is one of the least noticed parts of the English-speaking world, perhaps because it is overshadowed by the United States, perhaps because it lies off the beaten travel routes for New Zealanders making for Europe. This beautiful book, with its hundreds of lush photographs, suggests that Canada must be one of the loveliest countries in the world.
