Strathcona and the Making of Canada is a historical book written by William Thomas Rochester Preston and published in 1915. The book explores the life and legacy of Donald Alexander Smith, also known as Lord Strathcona, who was a prominent figure in Canadian history. Smith was a successful businessman and politician who played a key role in the development of Canada as a nation. The book delves into his early life, his career in the Hudson's Bay Company, his involvement in the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway, and his political career as a member of parliament. The author also examines Smith's philanthropic efforts, including his contributions to education and healthcare in Canada. The book provides a comprehensive look at the life of one of Canada's most influential figures and sheds light on the country's history during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
