Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Guide to the Materials for United States, History in Canadian Archives
A large part Of the Archives Of the Dominion consists Of transcripts from London and Paris. The originals Of these transcripts are, it is true, dealt with in the books on London and Paris archives which Professor Andrews and Mr. Leland have been preparing for the Carnegie Institution Of Washington. But Ottawa is nearer than London, and many an American student will find it most practicable to pursue his researches in Ottawa, aided by the calendars published by the Dominion Archives and by the present work, which in respect to the series Of transcripts is framed to be the complement Of the Official calendars. The student finds excellent facilities given him at Ottawa, with the most appreciative liberality. It is also well worthy Of note that the Archive establishment possesses a photostat, by means Of which copies Of its documents, which are mostly in modern and legible handwriting, can be readily and cheaply Obtained.
