About this word search
Voyageurs, Fur trade and Confederation bring Canadian history into a list that otherwise spans thousands of years. The voyageurs paddled heavy canoes loaded with furs along river routes for the trading companies, and Confederation in 1867 joined the first provinces into the Dominion of Canada.
Expect horizontal, vertical and diagonal placements, but nothing back to front. The three ages, STONEAGE, BRONZEAGE and IRONAGE, end identically, so look for the word before AGE. Battle and Treaty are shorter.
A history book club can use it as a warm-up, then name the period each word brings to mind.
