A History of the Canadian Dollar
James Powell - 1999
The book chronicles the ups and downs of the Canadian dollar through the years. It describes our dollar's relationship with its U.S. counterpart and the factors that led Canada to move from the gold standard in the 1920s, to a pegged exchange rate in the 1960s, and, ultimately, to a flexible exchange rate regime in 1970.
An updated version was made in 2005.
Canadian Silver Dollars - Voyageurs and Commemoratives
Starr Gilmore - 1961
This book is exactly what it purports to be: a history of Canada's silver dollars and their background.
