This history provides the general reader with an accurate summary of the province's development from prehistoric to modern times, including the broad outline of major developments such as exploration, settlement, economic growth, and social and political development. Relations with the federal government are explained from the province's point of view. The book has been checked for accuracy, balance and readability by over half a dozen professional Canadian historians, editors, analysts and general readers. A Short History of Alberta mentions in particular the era of ranching, the achievement and limitations on provincial status in 1905, the revolt of the farmers, the way the Depression led to the radical Social Credit Government, and the way that government and the succeeding Conservative one successfully defended the province's interests and addressed its problems.
