“The Canadian Home: From Cave to Electronic Cocoon”, by Marc Denhez

Denhez, Marc C. The Canadian Home: from Cave to Electronic Cocoon. Toronto: Dundurn, 1994. Print.

I only read the first chapter of this before taking it back to the library, but I liked what I read and didn’t want to forget to come back to it.  The foreword is by Pierre Berton, so you know this is no trifling book!  The chapter headings have witty summaries, and his literary references are extensive and unexpected, mentioning Socrates and the Rolling Stones on the very first page.  I learned more about the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Company than I’d known before, especially the historical perspective, just in the first chapter.

I need to revisit this in the future.
