Recenzje

This lively and highly anticipated study of the family in the territory that is now Canada brings histories of Indigenous and settler communities, Quebec and English Canada, and public and private life into stimulating conversation with each other. Magda Fahrni's characteristically thoughtful analysis, ranging over a period of six centuries, reminds us that family history—shaped by gender, race, class, and age—is also inextricably bound up with broad political processes including colonialism, migration, and war.
