Beschreibung

Focusing on the revolutionary movement in the Fort Cumberland region of Nova Scotia in 1775-76, Ernest Clarke explores why supporters of American independence did not prevail in this British North American colony. He reveals how the siege of Fort Cumberland shaped the attitudes of Nova Scotians to the revolution and to their place in the North American world.

Pressestimmen

"A tour de force ... By skilfully exploiting a wealth of new detail on the Cumberland siege relative to the whole colony in the 1770s, Clarke's narrative makes an important and impressive contribution to knowledge. Above everything else it is the penetrating detail that makes this study so remarkable." David Bell, Law, University of New Brunswick.
