From the dust jacket -----

This is a book written and illustrated for collectors, historians and visitors to Canada who have joined the ever growing number of bottle enthusiasts.

Careful research, illuminat­ing photography and the generous co-operation of experts has resulted in one of the most outstanding publications to be found on the subject anywhere. The context in general is kept to the Iikely-to-be-found bottles and not too much space has been expended on the extremely rare.

A very wide variety is shown and bottles never before included in any book abound within the covers. Historical facts of import to the collector have been verified. Documents relating to the bottle users of Can­ada have been sought after and photographed.

Doris and Peter Unitt, well known authorities on glass have traveled coast to coast to bring the reader a truly definitive work of lasting value and interest which will fascinate all who have ever held a bottle in their hand.
