Step into Canada as it was in 1850, recorded month by month, figure by figure. A young country takes shape. The Canadian Almanac and Repository of Useful Knowledge for the Year 1850 gathers in one nineteenth century almanac the commercial, statistical, astronomical, departmental, ecclesiastical, educational and financial facts that ordered daily life. From astronomical tables and calendars to a carefully arranged Canadian government and church directory, it stands as a historical Canadian reference, capturing the texture of institutions, belief and business in a formative year. As a commercial and statistical almanac, the volume brings together Canadian statistics and directories that illuminate how the colonies were organised and connected. Scholars of pre Confederation Canada and readers curious about mid nineteenth century Canada find here a reference for Canadian historians and researchers across public life. Its orderly presentation of offices, societies and other records makes it invaluable for genealogy and local history research, anchoring families, congregations and enterprises within an exact civic and provincial framework, with Canadian statistical data 1850 set alongside practical notes for everyday use. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Equally at home on the researcher's desk and in a vintage Canadian almanacs collection, The Canadian Almanac and Repository of Useful Knowledge for the Year 1850 offers an enduring encounter with the life of a nation on the threshold of change.
