About the book
"The colony that became Ontario arose almost spontaneously as some 10,000 Loyalists moved there following the American Revolution. After the War of 1812 settlers began to spread throughout the interlake peninsula and by the middle of the nineteenth century a mature forest ecosystem was increasingly replaced by farms. The scale of change from forest to cropland profoundly affected the environment. Liberally illustrated with analytical maps, Making Ontario details environmental change before the appearance of the railway."--BOOK JACKET.
