The Canada trip / Charles Gordon.
In the summer of 1996, Charles Gordon and his wife Nancy packed up the family car and drove across Canada, from Ottawa to St. John's, all the way west to Victoria, then back again. Gordon writes of the places they visited, the animals and other bizarre creatures they met, and the situations they found themselves in during the three month journey.
