Websters paperbacks take advantage of the fact that classics are frequently assigned readings in English courses. By using a running English-to-French thesaurus at the bottom of each page, this edition of The Mariner of St. Malo by Stephen Leacock was edited for three audiences. The first includes French-speaking students enrolled in an English Language Program (ELP), an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) program, an English as a Second Language Program (ESL), or in a TOEFL or TOEIC preparation program. The second audience includes English-speaking students enrolled in bilingual education programs or French speakers enrolled in English-speaking schools. The third audience consists of students who are actively building their vocabularies in French in order to take foreign service, translation certification, Advanced Placement (AP) or similar examinations. By using the Webster's French Thesaurus Edition when assigned for an English course, the reader can enrich their vocabulary in anticipation of an examination in French or English.TOEFL, TOEIC, AP and Advanced Placement are trademarks of the Educational Testing Service which has neither reviewed nor endorsed this book. All rights reserved.Websters edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number of difficult and potentially ambiguous English words. Rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions are given lower priority compared to difficult, yet commonly used words. Rather than supply a single translation, many words are translated for a variety of meanings in French, allowing readers to better grasp the ambiguity of English, and avoid them using the notes as a pure translation crutch. Having the readerdecipher a words meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. If a difficul

The Seigneurs Of Old Canada

1914

The Seigneurs of Old Canada is a historical book written by William Bennett Munro. The book explores the history of the seigneurs, or the landowners, in Canada during the colonial period. Munro delves into the social and economic structure of the seigneurial system, which was based on the feudal system of France. The book covers the period from the early 17th century to the mid-19th century, when the seigneurial system was abolished.Munro provides a detailed account of the seigneurs' role in the development of Canada, their relationship with the French government, and their interactions with the indigenous people. He also highlights the challenges and struggles faced by the seigneurs, including the changing economic and political landscape of Canada.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on different aspects of the seigneurial system. Munro provides historical evidence and analysis to support his arguments, making the book a valuable resource for anyone interested in Canadian history.Overall, The Seigneurs of Old Canada is a well-researched and informative book that sheds light on an important aspect of Canadian history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the social and economic structure of colonial Canada.It was during one of her proud and prosperous eras that France began her task of creating an empire beyond the Atlantic. At no time, indeed, was she better equipped for the work. No power of Western Europe since the days of Roman glory had possessed such facilities for conquering and governing new lands. If ever there was a land able and ready to take up the white man's burden it was the France of the seventeenth century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

The Cariboo Trail

A Chronicle of the Gold-fields of British Columbia

1916

Agnes C. Laut's The Cariboo Trail is a fascinating history of the Canadian gold rush that began in 1858. When, in early 1849, a group of ragged miners arrived in the sleepy town of Victoria from California, no one would have believed that a little over ten years later a gold rush would hit the Fraser River. Between 1859 and 1871, thousands of miners and prospectors travelled north and east from the headwaters of the Fraser River, with the hopes of striking it rich. And many did—over the course of twelve years, twenty-five million dollars in gold came from the Cariboo country. Originally published in 1920 as part of the Chronicles of Canada series, Laut's exciting and personalized account of the Cariboo gold rush is filled with tidbits gleaned through conversations with "old-timers" still living on the trail and facts acquired on trips in the Rockies guided by prospectors. From the story of the construction of the famous Cariboo road—"one of the wonders of the world"—and the Overlanders' journey across the width of the continent to details about the techniques and machinery used in the mines and life in the camps, the period, the gold rush, and the Cariboo region are brought to life for the reader. Though it had ended by federation with the Canadian Dominion, the "inrush of miners" during the Cariboo gold rush gave birth to the colony of British Columbia. The Cariboo Trail is a more than just a narrative of those events—it is a thoroughly enjoyable and integral part of the history of the region and of Canada.
