Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. 12mo. pp. xxiv, 504. with half-title. publisher s 24-page catalogue bound in at end. original bds., rebacked. First Edition of one of Mackenzie s scarce earlier works, relating his observations and impressions of the northeastern United States and Upper and Lower Canada. Included are… chapters on emigration, politics, kidnapping slaves in Upper Canada, conduct of negroes in the Canadas, Lafayette on the Niagara frontier, bookselling in America, the Children of Peace, the Credit River Indians, the Rideau Canal, libel laws, banking in Upper Canada, the Lower Canada Company, &c. The work was published in London where Mackenzie went to present his political grievances following his expulsion from the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada in 1831 for libel, and it is extremely critical of political and social institutions in Upper Canada. "It may be alleged with great truth against these volumes, that they are the production of a radical reformer; and the charge is a grave and serious one, when made in a community so aristocratic as the British reading public. But I would say, in mitigation, that I am writing about America, a land of radical reformers, and therefore so much the better calculated or [sic] the task of explaining their opinions and feelings: facts are the same, if faithfully stated, whatever may be the colouring." (Introduction) Dionne II 1090. Gagnon I 2195. Howes M-139. Lande S1425. Sabin 43438. TPL 1789.
