It Covers Everything in the Heart of Canada's West

With the boom in Alberta I've recommended this book to a few people in the East who are interested in at least visiting Calgary. The city is spread out so finding entertainment requires a bit of planning. If you like to ski and hike then Calgary is a place for you. If you need culture and cosmopolitan in Canada then go to Vancouver, Toronto, or Montreal.
