Title overview

Snapshots: An Introduction to Tourism is a concise, easy-to-read overview of the Canadian tourism industry.

The Sixth Canadian edition has been updated and reorganized to conform to the new North American Industrial Classification System's five sectors of tourism and features a chapter devoted to each segment.
