Feature Review

Contradictory Impulses

Edited by Greg Donaghy and Patricia E. Roy

Contradictory Impulses

"Contradictory Impulses_, with its wide range of essays and comprehensive suggestions for further reading, is an important contribution to the literature on Canada and the Pacific in the twentieth century. The book_ _is a welcome contribution to a field still dominated by scholarly interests in Canada and the Anglo-American world and where Canada's connections with Asia and the Pacific are too often ignored or mentioned only in passing."

- Laura Madokoro (University of British Columbia)
