Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Provincial Governor in the English Colonies of North America This essay was in its original form presented as a dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Harvard University. It has since been revised and in considerable part rewritten. Though in the process Of revision many errors of fact and errors of judgment have been corrected, there are doubtless many which have escaped the author's notice, and which remain to be pointed out by others. It is hoped, however, that the conclusions here set forth may at least serve to provoke discussion and investigation in a comparatively unworked and exceedingly important field of research.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Report of the Earl of Durham: Her Majesty's High Commissioner and Governor-General of British North America Wolfe gave to England in 1759 a colony inhabited by 60,000 French settlers with French customs and French laws. It was at first the policy of the British Government to introduce English laws and customs, and so to manufacture a rigid uniformity; but such an attempt was seen to be both imprudent and impossible. In 1774 to her new subjects England secured their religious and legal rights, and until 1783 the French Canadians lived in peace and comparative content. But that year, which saw the independence of America recognised, saw also a great influx into Canada of Loyalists from the United States. In 1790 no less than 50,000 had passed into the country, and, helped by England with grants of land and money, had settled for the most part in Upper Canada. The British Government, knowing that the Loyalists would not rest without some form of representative institutions, and wishing to separate the new-comers from the French settlers, passed in 1791 the Canada Act, by which it was provided that the country should be divided into two provinces - Upper and Lower Canada. To each of the two provinces was assigned a Governor with his executive, a popular Assembly, and a Legislative Council consisting of members nominated by the Crown. The Executive was independent of the Assembly, and was not in any way responsible to it, being the creature of the Crown, and able to carry on the government of the country and to raise money without the assent of the popular body. With the fortunes of Upper Canada, where the inhabitants wore for the most part British or Loyalist immigrants, we have not to deal. The absence of control by the Assembly over the Executive was not felt so bitterly in this province because both were British in race and sympathy.

Download or read book Constitutional Myths written by Ray Raphael and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans on both sides of the aisle love to reference the Constitution as the ultimate source of truth. But which truth? What did the framers really have in mind? In a book that author R.B. Bernstein calls “essential reading,” acclaimed historian Ray Raphael places the Constitution in its historical context, dispensing little-known facts and debunking popular preconceived notions. For each myth, Raphael first notes the kernel of truth it represents, since most myths have some basis in fact. Then he presents a big “BUT”—the larger context that reveals what the myth distorts. What did the framers see as the true role of government? What did they think of taxes? At the Constitutional Convention, how did they mix principles with politics? Did James Madison really father the Constitution? Did the framers promote a Bill of Rights? Do the so-called Federalist Papers reveal the Constitution's inner meaning? An authoritative and entertaining book, which “should appeal equally to armchair historians and professionals in the field” (Booklist), Constitutional Myths reveals what our founding document really says and how we should apply it today.
Download or read book A Republic If You Can Keep It written by Michael Riccards and published by Michael Riccards. This book was released on 1987 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riccards has written a unique account of the creation of and early experience with the US presidency. The author first explores the English and colonial experience that was relevant to structuring executive authority at the constitutional convention (as well as the theories supporting this experience). He then turns to familiar subjects--the decision-making in Philadelphia that led to a presidency and the role of the executive article in the ratification debate. All this is accomplished with clarity and economy of writing. The longer second part of the book is an analysis of George Washington's presidency, showing that Washington followed a federalist or strong executive model. Several brief chapters discuss the man and his popularity among the American people, the condition of the executive and bureaucracy before Washington became president, and events and policies that occupied the first president. The last chapter is an epilogue that all too briefly sets the Washington presidency in comparative and historical context. . . . The book is a useful contribution to presidential scholarship. Choice

Download or read book History of the Society of Jesus in North America Vol 1 written by Thomas Hughes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Society of Jesus in North America, Vol. 1: Colonial and Federal The first portion of the American history, which is herewith laid before the public, belonged properly to the English historian of the Society of Jesus. The whole of this history, like that projected for England, is only one part of a comprehensive historical series, comprising in different languages an authentic account of the Society over the world. During the first century and a half of Jesuit life and work in the British Colonies of North America, the persons who worked there, as well as the organization of the whole Mission itself, were referred to that unit of Jesuit government which was called the English Province. A number of reasons, however, induced the historian of that Province to seek relief from a piece of historical work, which appeared as dissonant in general tone and temper from English history, as its subject was distant from English soil. Hence, for that first century and a half, it was transferred to the pages of this narrative, which was intended originally to comprise only the Jesuit history of the nineteenth century in the United States and Canada. So transferred, that portion had to be prefixed. And it now supplies an appropriate and even necessary train of antecedents to the later history of the Order in English-speaking North America. We have taken for our title the official and proper name of this Religious Order, which in the Latin nations of Europe is styled, with a very exact shade of military meaning, "The Company of Jesus," but in the official ecclesiastical Latin, for want of a more precise term, had to be rendered Societas Jesu. From the official Latin the English name was taken, and we use it here: "The Society of Jesus." We might have preferred the shorter and popular epithet of "Jesuits," were it not that a well-known volume of Francis Parkman's had appropriated the simpler and easier name for a history of "The Jesuits in North America in the Seventeenth Century."
