    BOOK REVIEWS 207 are bound into the volume in two separate locations - immediately after chapter seventeen and after the appendix. Despite the book's shortcomings, it is unquestionably a worthwhile acquisition for those who serve the general public. Explorations brings to the attention of the general reader some of the excellent research on the history of the mapping of Canada which has for too long remained inaccessible within the pages of the ACML Bulletin and Proceedings. Richard Hugh Pinnell University of Waterloo The Northward Expansion of Canada, 1914-1967. MORRIS ZASLOW. Toronto: McClelland and Stewart, 1988. 421 p. ISBN 0-7710-9071-4. Before one can properly review The Northward Expansion of Canada, 1914-1967, it is necessary to place the book in context as one of the nineteen-volume Canadian Centenary Series. The stated goal of the series editors was to explore the history of the peoples and lands which form the Canadian nation, through "volumes sufficiently large to permit adequate treatment of all the phases of the theme in light of modem knowledge" (p. ix). Each volume followed the prescribed format of general narra- tive, giving a balanced treatment to economic, social, and political history. The editors were fully aware of the difficulties which such constraints would impose on the individual authors, but they were confident that the rewards were worth the risks. With the spirit of Canada's centennial providing the impetus and the burgeoning supply of new archival sources furnishing the raw materials, W.L. Morton and Donald Creighton felt "justified" in publishing a new "cooperative" history of Canada.

  • Brief Memoir of the Old French Fort at Toronto
    3 9004 01514902 BRIEF MEMOIR OLD FRMCH FOET AT TORONTO. BY THE REV. DR. SCADDING. 77 ; BRIEF MEMOIR OLD FRENCH FORT AT TORONTO BY THE REV. DR. SCADDING [The foundation stone of an Obelisk to mark the site of the old French fort or trading post at Toronto, was laid on the last day of the Semi-Centennial week, 1884, by the Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario, assisted by the Mayor of Toronto, A. Boswell, Esq., and J. B. McMurrich, Esq., Chairman of the Semi-Centennial Committee. The following paper, prepared at the request of the Committee, was read on the occasion.] The domain of the Five Nations of the Iroquois, which extended along the whole of the south side of Lake Ontario, was, for a time, regarded, in theory at least, as neutral ground, by the French of New France and the English of New England. But both French and English soon shewed a desire to obtain a foothold there ; first for the purposes of trade, and, secondly, with a view, it cannot be doubted, of ultimate possession by treaty or otherwise. By permission from the neighbouring Aborigines, La Salle, in 1679 ? erected a small stockade at the mouth of the Niagara River, to be simply a receptacle for the peltries brought down from the far West, from Michilimackinac and Detroit, by way of Lake Erie ; which stockade, by 1725 had become the strong, solid fortress which, with some enlargements, we see to-day in good order on the eastern side of the entrance to the world-famous river just named.

    Frontier Culture: The Roots and Persistence of “Rugged Individualism” in the United States Samuel Bazzi, Martin Fiszbein, and Mesay Gebresilasse NBER Working Paper No. 23997 November 2017, Revised August 2020 JEL No. D72,H2,N31,N91,P16 ABSTRACT The presence of a westward-moving frontier of settlement shaped early U.S. history. In 1893, the historian Frederick Jackson Turner famously argued that the American frontier fostered individualism. We investigate the Frontier Thesis and identify its long-run implications for culture and politics. We track the frontier throughout the 1790–1890 period and construct a novel, county-level measure of total frontier experience (TFE). Historically, frontier locations had distinctive demographics and greater individualism. Long after the closing of the frontier, counties with greater TFE exhibit more pervasive individualism and opposition to redistribution. This pattern cuts across known divides in the U.S., including urban–rural and north–south. We provide evidence on the roots of frontier culture, identifying both selective migration and a causal effect of frontier exposure on individualism. Overall, our findings shed new light on the frontier’s persistent legacy of rugged individualism.

McCartney Email: [email protected] (may appear as [email protected]) Office: MHRA 3103 Office Hours: Tuesday and Thursday from 2:15pm-3:15pm and by appointment Mailbox: MHRA 2118A Course Description: Albert Bierstadt, Emigrants Crossing the Plains (1867). This course explores the ways that ideas about the frontier and the lived experience of the frontier have shaped American culture from the earliest days of settlement through the twenty- first century. Though there will be a good deal of information about the history of western expansion, politics, and the settlement of the West, the course is designed primarily to explore the variety of meanings the frontier has held for different generations of Americans. Thus, in addition to settlers, politicians, and Native Americans, you will encounter artists, writers, filmmakers, and an assortment of pop culture heroes and villains. History is more than a set of facts brought out of the archives and presented as “the way things were;” it is a careful construction held together with the help of hypotheses and assumptions.1 Therefore, this course will also examine the “construction” of history as you analyze primary sources, discuss debates in secondary works written by historians, and use both primary and secondary sources to create your own interpretation of history.

  • Women of New France
    Women of New France Introducing New France Today it may be hard to imagine that vast regions of the North American continent were once claimed, and effectively controlled, by France. By 1763 some 70,000 French speakers based primarily in what is now the province of Quebec, managed to keep well over 1,000,000 British subjects confined to the Atlantic seaboard from Maine to Florida. France claimed land that included 15 current states, including all of Michigan.

  • The French in North America: Another Frontier of Inclusion
    The French in North America: Another Frontier of Inclusion The Protestant Reformation transformed Europe beginning with the German priest Martin Luther's 1517 nailing of his 95 theses or statements to the door of the Wittenberg Church. Luther sought at first to reform the Catholic Church, but soon his followers protested the Catholic Church's rule. Eventually the term "Protestant" applied to all Western Christians who did not maintain allegiance to the Pope. Take a "Western Civilization" course to learn about the Protestant Reformation. For this class, we need to understand the Reformation as it influenced settlement in North America. Protestants organized the first French attempts to colonize in North America, but these Huguenots colonies failed largely because they were founded in the Southeast where the Spanish dominated and moved to crush the French settlements. Fisherman from northern Europe knew of the rich fishing grounds off of Nova Scotia and soon Europeans discovered the fur resources of North America. The French traded textiles, glass, copper, and ironware (including weapons) with American Indians and in turn received furs. Because the wild game of Europe had been so depleted by Europe's growing population, the North American furs filled an important need for winter clothing. Thus the North American fur trade began. By end of 16th century over a thousand ships per year (mostly French) traded for furs along northern coast. The Indians grew skilled at pitting Europeans against each other to get best exchange rate. The fur trade benefited both the Indians and Europeans, but the trade also encouraged the spread of epidemic diseases and resulted in Indians' becoming dependent on European manufactured goods such as metal knives, kettles, and firearms.
