All Afloat: A Chronicle of Craft and Waterways

"All Afloat: A Chronicle of Craft and Waterways" by William Wood is a book about Canada's history and its important waterways. The book talks about how the St. Lawrence River and other waterways helped Canada grow by connecting to the rest of the world. It describes different kinds of boats, how they got better over time, and how they were used for trade, exploring, and moving people across Canada. The story shows how these waterways were very important to the early days of Canada, helping it become what it is today, and gives a sense of how Canada's identity is tied to its rivers, lakes, and coasts.
