There's a typo in the second sentence.
Kind of goes downhill from there.

Too quick...

I wish there was a little more history of all the peoples vs. what took place...but I’m ok with it...

Covers many years in 99 pages. Lots of typos, though, which was distracting and annoying. Served its purpose to give me a bird’s eye overview of Canadian history. Definitely piqued my curiosity about certain events and people for future reading.

Very textbook-y. Straightforward. Some typos. Informative, but not very interesting.

While I appreciated this book refreshing my memory and teaching me new things, each section was so short that I wasn't able to clean as much as I would have liked.

Nunavut is a territory.

Book says Nunavut is Canada's biggest province. It's not a province it's a territory. As well as many spelling\grammar mistakes.

Not well written and contains inaccuracies

Nice as a brief high level overview but lacks detail and in a few cases inaccuracies. I would not recommend.
