Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Canadian Rebellion of 1837 Carlyle, in the introductory chapter to his relation of Cromwell´s first civil war, wrote: "How has pacific England, the most solid pacific country in the world, got all into this armed attitude; and decided itself to argue henceforth by pike and bullet till it get some solution?" My object in writing the History of the Rebellion of 1837 in Canada has been to endeavour to solve the same problem in relation to that colony of the British Empire. How far I have succeeded I leave to each reader´s individual judgment. I have sought to make fairness and impartiality my governing principles in describing the events of the time. The History is in some measure political, but is not, I trust, written in the spirit of a partisan: that I have tried to avoid. I submit the narrative to my readers in the hope that they will justify my pretension. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
