NOTES

This is a fascinating collection of short pieces about Canadian firsts, ranging from Canada's first Potter's Field through technical developments and inventions like Sonar and the variable pitch aircraft propeller, to Canada's first female winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. The collection is presented in chronological order from 33 to 2014 CE, which contributes a historical context to each innovation while maintaining a sense of the eclectic range of Canadian originality and achievement
