The border conflict between the Unites States of America and Canada.

The boundary between Canada and the United States is famously described as the longest undefended border in the world. But it was not always so. In The Struggle for the Border, renowned journalist and popular historian Bruce Hutchison tells the little-known story of how that border was established. It is a story of frontier war, explorers' expeditions, Fenian raids, the burning of Washington, and of political threats and counter threats. Hutchison carries the amazing chronicle up to the days just after the Second World War and the continental military and economic unification that laid the foundations of contemporary Canada.

Book is in exceptional conditon for the age. Very nice. Corners show only minor bumps. Spotless interior. Un-clipped jacket that is very nice as well. Some slight edge wear to jacket.
Bright and straight, gift worthy.
