The Last Forty Years: Canada since the union of 1841. [With plates, including portraits
A two-volume political history of Canada from the 1841 union to 1881, written by John Charles Dent and issued in Toronto by George Virtue for Victorian readers following Dominion politics. The nineteen plates are steel-engraved head-and-shoulders portraits of statesmen and judges, bust vignettes fading into blank ground with engraved caption lines, useful for Victorian faces, whiskers, and collar-and-cravat detail.
