Opis

Columbia Or the Future of Canada George Godwin Originally published in 1928 "Deserves grave study." Evening Standard "Indicates aptly that the future of Canada lies with the USA..." Time and Tide In this volume the future of Canada is discussed from political, social and economic standpoints. The possibility of Canada's union with America is also examined. 90pp Albyn Or Scotland and the Future C M Grieve Originally published in 1927 A vigorous answer, explicit and implicit to Caledonia, tracing the movements of a real Scottish revival, in music, art, literature and politics and coming to the conclusion that there is a chance for the regeneration of the Scottish people. 90pp Achates, or Canada in the Empire W Eric Harris Originally published in 1929 An answer to Columbia, written by a Canadian, maintaining that Canada will maintain herself as before within the British Empire and co-operation (but no more) with the United States. 86pp Caledonia Or the Future of the Scots George Malcolm Thomson Originally published in 1927 "It is relentless and terrible in its exposure of the realities that underlie the myth of "the canny Scot."" Irish Statesman "As a piece of incisive writing and powerful yet restrained invective, Caledonia is specially notable." Spectator Highly critical of post-Union policy in Scotland, this volume presents a scathing analysis of the Scot and his country in the first half of the twentieth century. 90pp Hibernia or the Future of Ireland Bolton C Waller Originally published in 1928 "An earnest and challenging piece of work." Irish Times "Notable in a notable series." Foreign Affairs This volume maintains that Ireland is being re-born and that whilst rebirth is a painful process it is nonetheless a joyful event. 90pp
