Catherine Manning is concerned to relate the French traders to their social, regional and financial roots, and to trace their connections with other commercial groups in India, both European and Asian. The French evidence that she assembles, including much archival material, also makes a significant contribution to the debate about economic decline and renewal in 18th-century India. Her analysis shows that economic and political developments in South India were crucial to the French move from trade to war in the 1740s. Finally the book examines why the French failed in an enterprise which was to succeed so signally for the British only a few decades later.

Most monumental buildings of France’s global empire – such as the famous Saigon and Hanoi Opera Houses – were built in South and Southeast Asia. Much of this architecture, and the history of who built it and how, has been overlooked. The Architecture of Empire considers the large-scale public architecture associated with French imperialism in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century India, Siam, and Vietnam, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century Indochina, the largest colony France ever administered in Asia. Offering a sweeping panorama of the buildings of France’s colonial project, this is the first study to encompass the architecture of both the ancien régime and modern empires, from the founding of the French trading company in the seventeenth century to the independence and nationalist movements of the mid-twentieth century. Gauvin Bailey places particular emphasis on the human factor: the people who commissioned, built, and lived in these buildings. Almost all of these architects, both Europeans and non-Europeans, have remained unknown beyond – at best – their surnames. Through extensive archival research, this book reconstructs their lives, providing vital background for the buildings themselves. Much more than in the French empire of the Western Hemisphere, the buildings in this book adapt to indigenous styles, regardless of whether they were designed and built by European or non-European architects. The Architecture of Empire provides a unique, comprehensive study of structures that rank among the most fascinating examples of intercultural exchange in the history of global empires.

Aucun autre événement de notre histoire n'a inspiré autant de récits et de poèmes que la ruée vers l'or du Klondike. En 1896, à la suite de la découverte d'un riche gisement au ruisseau Bonanza, des gens issus de tous les milieux affluèrent de partout vers la ville de Dawson, qui commençait à peine à prendre forme. Voici l'histoire remarquable de la ruée vers l'or du Klondike, racontée pour la première fois à travers la vie de six personnages très différents : un chercheur d'or, William Haskell; un bon prêtre, le père Judge; une femme d'affaires avisée, Belinda Mulroney; un jeune écrivain, Jack London; une journaliste déterminée, Flora Shaw, et un Mountie très discipliné, Sam Steele. A travers leurs récits enchevêtrés, Orpailleurs nous présente, dans un panorama fascinant, une ville subarctique où mineurs, tenanciers de saloons, danseuses, membres du clergé et hommes de loi vécurent ensemble, par la force des choses, un événement marquant de notre histoire. La ruée vers l'or a donné naissance à bien des légendes, mais, grâce à ses recherches minutieuses, Charlotte Gray nous révèle qui a véritablement gagné et qui a perdu dans cette course à la fortune instantanée. « Grâce à sa recherche approfondie et son attention aux détails, Charlotte Gray démêle les fils enchevêtrés des mythes et des clichés entourant l'histoire de la grande ruée vers l'or du Klondike pour nous livrer la véritable histoire de ces aventuriers extraordinaires qui ont lutté pour survivre et prospérer dans ces contrées inhospitalières. » Margaret MacMillan « Ce livre montre pourquoi ces années de misère nous fascinent encore aujourd'hui et confirme la réputation de Charlotte Gray en tant que remarquable auteure de récits historiques. » National Post
