  • The Growth and Evolution of an Historical Myth, 1825-1914
    MURRAY BARKLEY The Loyalist Tradition in New Brunswick: the Growth and Evolution of an Historical Myth, 1825-1914 . They were But words are wanting to tell what they were; Ask what men should be? and they were that. — Quoted in the New Brunswick Courier (Saint John), May 23, 1863 (from the Colonial Presbyterian). The "Loyalist experiment" in New Brunswick was the attempt to establish an exclusive Elysium in the north. It was to have been based on a hierarchical social structure, an agricultural society founded on large land-holdings, and a corporate, self-sufficient community of loyal, well-disposed subjects. It had been designed as a bastion against levelling republican principles.1 The experiment, as such, proved an unmitigated failure. For, united by war, the Loyalists were divided in peace. Throughout the American Revolution, the adversities of war had produced a powerful cohesion among the Loyalists. But in peace, the circumstances of the first settlement of New Brunswick seem to have precipitated only diversity and dissent.2 What really constituted 1 W.S.

THE LOYALISTS OF NEW BRUNSWICK. By ESTHER CLARK WRIGHT. Fredericton, N. B. 1955. $4.00. In this attractively printed book on The Loyalists of New Bruns­ wick, Esther Clark Wright has thrown new light on the gathering to­ gether and exodus of thousands of refugees transported from the port of New York at the close of the American Revolution, and has traced the struggles of those Loyalists who settled in what is now New Bruns­ wick. Incidentally, Mrs. Wright explains the origin of the namfl Loyalist to supersede such names as Tory, King's man, Royalist and Loyal Refugee. Mrs. Wright is a native of Fredericton and a graduate in history and economics from Acadia and Radcliffe, and is already well known for her regional studies of New Brunswick rivers-The Petitcodiac, The Mirmaichi, and The Saint John River. She became interested in the Loyalists of New Brunswick while putting together the story of her Loyalist ancestor, Alexander Clark, and has done extensive research in Canada, the united States and England.
