Already, it is estimated, less than fifty men control more than one-third of Canada's material wealth as expressed in railways, banks, factories, mines, land and other properties and resources.\" -Gustavus Myers, A History of Canadian Wealth (1914) A History of Canadian Wealth (1914), by Gustavus Myers, reports on his research into the means by which a few men gained control over the Canadian economy at the start of the twentieth century. Filled with stories of corruption, swindling, land deals, and bribery, it reveals a side of Canadian history that had not been exposed in previous documents and permanently altered the reputations of many of the country's so-called leaders. The first of a two-volume work the author had planned, its sequel was never published.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosimo Classics","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47615954747543,"sku":"9781646798919","price":2201.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781646798919.webp?v=1775103721","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/history-of-canadian-wealth-9781646798919","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
