From the publisher: "For many years French Immersion programs were thought to be the most efficient and effective way of producing bilingual speakers. In this book, Hector Hammerly show that because French Immersion is based on incorrect assumptions about second language learning in the classroom, it is not producing bilinguals but speakers of English and "Frenglish," a mixture of French and English with frequent errors of the most basic kind. Dr. Hammerly discusses the immersion phenomenon in detail, explains why immersion does not and cannot work well in the classroom and proposes a better classroom road to bilingualism.". 1st ed?

Between 1910 and 1914, over 2,500 applications for homestead were filed, while numerous communities were begun. In illustration and text, Lure of the Peace River Country depicts the saga of these people. It highlights the enthusiastic, and sometimes dubious. publicity and promotion of the region, the tenacious individuals who answered the call, and the gruelling experience of travelling to the region. This book was researched in archives throughout Canada. It includes 170 archival and contemporary color photos, many of which have never been published. Original maps and many unpublished diaries, letters and other original sources have also been used to provide a revealing and engaging account of the early development of one of the last frontier regions in North America.…

Card Wrappers [French]. Condizione: As New. Second Edition of 1995. The Peace River Country was the last major region of North America to be thrown open for homestead. Prior to large scale settlement however, an intriguing history had already emerged, as natives, traders, missionaries, gold seekers and farmers, all endeavored to wrest a living from this rugged, but beautiful northern environment. Delayed Frontier presents the history of the Peace River Country before the settlement period. Based on extensive archival research, this book reveals the plight of the native population, the exploits of the fur traders, the evangelizing efforts of the missionaries, the exigencies of the prospectors and the attempts of first farmers. The lives of many unique individuals are woven into this history such as Twelve Foot Davis, Jim Cornwall, Alllie Brick, Dan Williams, Tranquille, Alex Monkman, Maud Cliufford, Alex MacKenzie, Duncan Tustawits and Father Tissier. Their stories, and the circumstances in which they were rooted, present a fascinating and human account of the early years of this frontier land.
