Culinary Landmarks
Culinary Landmarks is a definitive history and bibliography of Canadian cookbooks from the beginning, when La cuisinière bourgeoise was published in Quebec City in 1825, to the mid-twentieth century. Over the course of more than ten years Elizabeth Driver researched every cookbook published within the borders of present-day Canada, whether a locally authored text or a Canadian edition of a foreign work.

Cloth and Clay
Cloth and Clay: a Davison-Ferguson History is the story of two immigrant families united by marriage in nineteenth century Ontario. Traced back to their earliest known origins in North East Scotland and in Yorkshire, England and County Donegal and County Cork in Ireland, the narrative probes the challenges they faced in their homeland, reveals why they made the decision to emigrate and illustrates how they became established in the pottery and tailoring trades. Cloth and Clay explores the local history of both Hamilton and London, Ontario as the story of the Davisons and Fergusons unfolds. It is a well researched investigation of two families within the broader immigrant experience in Canada

Allan G. Bogue is a notable exception. A legendary agricultural, political, and economic historian, and one of only three historians ever elected to the National Academy of Sciences, Bogue has for the last fifty years written about the political and economic forces shaping agriculture.
