Changing Social Origins of the Canadian Industrial Elite, 1880–1910

T. W. Acheson

Business History Review, 1973, vol. 47, issue 2, 189-217

Abstract: Professor Acheson presents the collective social portraits of two groups of leading Canadian industrialists, one from the years 1880–1885 and the other from 1905–1910. He considers such factors as ethnic and religious traditions, birthplaces, education, family backgrounds, career patterns, political and social activities, economic mobility, and regional differentials in analyzing the changing composition of the two elites.
