Canada has a density of only nine people per square mile, nearly ninety percent of whom live in a thin southern fringe of cities, industrial centers, and agricultural regions near its border with the United States. Also, two-thirds of Canada is in an undeveloped state. The National Geographic book Canada's Wilderness Lands is about those undeveloped lands. The national and provincial parks of Canada are the main focus of this beautifully illustrated book.
Geographers generally divide Canada into five regions and the book is divided in a similar fashion as the chapter titles indicate: Atlantic Canada, The Canadian Shield, The High Arctic, The Interior Plains, and Western Canada. Each chapter is written/photographed by different authors/photographers so the style of each chapter is slightly different. Also, each chapter has a map of its respective region. I especially enjoyed the chapter on the Interior Plains as it included information on Dinosaur Provincial Park in Alberta.
In conclusion, Canada's Wilderness Lands is a great way to learn about the geography, wildlife, and indigenous peoples of Canada. Furthermore, the book celebrates the natural heritage and wilderness treasures of a country with spectacular scenery. Finally, the exquisite photographs prove that the wilderness still prevails in America's neighbor to the north.
