Post-WWII Canada/2 books
A 9 page research paper/essay that contrasts and compares 2 boos on Canadian history. Two books, Doug Owram's Born at the Right Time: A History of the Baby-Boom Generation (University of Toronto Press, 1996) and Alvin Finkel's Our Lives, Canada after 1945 (Lorimer, 1997) offer very different perspectives on life was like for the majority of Canadians in the post-World War II era, that is 1945-1970. In each book, the authors describe the origins and character of suburban lifestyles, but the books differ due to the distinctions between the approaches of each author. A close examination of each text reveals that where the authors appear to disagree is a direct result of the perspective employed and with small subtitles in their presentation of the socio- political-economic social atmosphere of this era. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
