Far Away People: Grades III & IV Social Studies by Marion McVeety is a fascinating vintage educational reader from 1942 that introduces young students to cultures, traditions, and daily life in countries around the world. Written for elementary social studies classrooms, this charming historical text reflects the teaching methods and worldview of the early 20th century while encouraging curiosity about people living in distant lands.

Filled with descriptive lessons and period illustrations, the book offers a glimpse into how geography, culture, and global communities were taught to children during the wartime era. Collectors of vintage schoolbooks, educational history, and Canadiana will appreciate its nostalgic appeal and historical significance.

A wonderful addition to collections of antique textbooks and mid-century educational materials, Far Away Peoplecaptures both the innocence and perspective of 1940s classroom learning while preserving an interesting piece of social studies history.

Love the shelves. Nice touch to my bathroom. Easy enough to install. They're not holding anything too heavy so can't speak too much on that but they do have a nice width.

Good for light stuff
Color: Black, Size: 15 inches, Color: Black, Size: 15 inches
Good product. Very light though and if it’s in dry wall won’t hold something really heavy. I don’t think it would hold 20 pounds just light. I put over my washer and dryer and put one right on top that way I can put heavy stuff on that side without it weighing down and being ripped out of the wall. I won’t be putting heavy stuff on the right side I used 4 pieces and the wall is about 60-62 inches long

Perfect sized floating shelves
Color: Black, Size: 24 inches, Color: Black, Size: 24 inches
These are great and the perfect width. I had my contractor install them because my tile had to have a hole drilled into it. I love that it looks seemless and flat to the tile. New bathroom renovation. I am very pleased. Holds a few towels also candles and a little plant with extra space. Perfect for a minimal look or if you have a small bathroom. Color was spot on.

Not What I Expected
Color: White, Size: 32 inches
This set of floating shelves was a disappointment. They’re advertised as holding 20 pounds, but mine began to bend with barely 10 pounds on them. All the screws and anchors were installed tightly and correctly, yet the metal brackets still warped under minimal weight. The shelves look fine on the wall, but I’m leaving them up only because I don’t want to patch a dozen holes—not because they’re sturdy. Definitely not the quality or strength I expected.
