Through the last half of the nineteenth century, numbers of Canadians began to regard the West as a land of ideal opportuniy for large-scale agricultural settlement. This belief, in turn, led Canada to insist on ownership of the region and on immediate development. Underlying the expansionist movement was the assumption that the West was to be a hinterland to central Canada, both in its economic relationship and in its cultural development. But settlers who accepted the extravagant promises of expanionism found it increasingly difficult to reconcile the assumption of easstern dominance with their own perception of the needs of the West and of Canada. Doug Owram analyses the various phases of this development, examining in particular the writings - historical, scientific, journalistic, and promotional - that illuminate one of the most significant movements in the history of nineteenth-century Canada.

Eve has eaten from the Tree of Knowledge. As the serpent Tiamat promised, her eyes have become open to the good and evil in all things, including the human heart. Soon after, a flood casts her and Adam out of Eden, the curses God spoke of fall upon them, and she gives birth to two sons, into a world from which they must suffer and die. But only when her oldest son Cain kills his brother Abel, does she feel the true weight and regret of what she has done. Now, in her greatest despair, Tiamat has returned. Under the command of his mysterious master, he tells her that the waters have receded and Eden is alive again. With the promise of bringing her dead son back to life, he tells her of the Tree of Life and how it has the power to vanquish all suffering, if she is willing to betray God once more. She is forced to choose between Tiamat, who offers what she desires most, and God, who once cast her out of Eden. But how can she trust a serpent who is willing to betray his own Creator? And how can she trust a Creator whose truth is kept hidden from the world?

A masterpiece of Biblical scope, and the magnum opus of one of America’s most enduring authors, in a commemorative hardcover edition In his journal, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck called East of Eden "the first book," and indeed it has the primordial power and simplicity of myth. Set in the rich farmland of California's Salinas Valley, this sprawling and often brutal novel follows the intertwined destinies of two families—the Trasks and the Hamiltons—whose generations helplessly reenact the fall of Adam and Eve and the poisonous rivalry of Cain and Abel. The masterpiece of Steinbeck’s later years, East of Eden is a work in which Steinbeck created his most mesmerizing characters and explored his most enduring themes: the mystery of identity, the inexplicability of love, and the murderous consequences of love's absence. Adapted for the 1955 film directed by Elia Kazan introducing James Dean, and read by thousands as the book that brought Oprah’s Book Club back, East of Eden has remained vitally present in American culture for over half a century.
