This volume discusses the autobiographical inclination in Canadian literature, exploring works by such writers as Alice Munro, W.O.

Mitchell, Michael Ondaatje, John Glassco, and Susanna Moodie.

Others works, including the oral memoirs of a Metis, an Inuit's account as being civil servant in Ottawa, and the autobiographical writings of pioneer women and French missionaries are examined to show the depth and breadth of this tradition in Canada.
