Description

An engaging environmental and literary history of Upper Canada focusing on British colonialism, Indigenous activism, and cross-cultural exchange. Literature emerging from nineteenth-century Upper Canada, born of dramatic cultural and political collisions, reveals much about the colony's history through its contrasting understandings of nature, ecology, deforestation, agricultural development, and land rights. Kevin Hutchings provides an engaging environmental and literary history of Upper Canada focusing on British colonialism, Indigenous activism, and cross-cultural exchange.
