Rezensionen

I read this comprehensive overview of Canadian history for a university class on the subject. Not the most gripping read but it did contain a lot of information and was very informative. The book is well-organized and included a lot of photographs and excerpts from primary sources, which gave me a better grasp on the particular time periods and historical contexts. This book served as a huge aid in the course, from which I learned a lot.

Author's thesis is that 'clearances' up to 1815 were voluntary, and in fact opposed by landowners who were losing their workers, and the state which was losing its population.

After 1815,came the more traditionally described 'forced' clearances.
