    Summary: 
    From one of our nation's most beloved and iconic authors comes a lyrical 150th birthday gift to Canada. Jane Urquhart chooses 50 Canadian objects and weaves a rich and surprising narrative that speaks to our collective experience as a nation. Each object is beautifully illustrated by the noted artist Scott McKowen, with Jane Urquhart conjuring and distilling meaning and magic from these unexpected facets of our history. The 50 artifacts range from a Nobel Peace Prize medal, a literary cherry tree, a royal cow-catcher, a Beothuk legging, a famous skull and an iconic artist's shoe.
