Excerpt from The Emigrant's Guide, or Sketches of Canada: With Some of the Northern and Western States of America After an absence of thirty-six years - nineteen in the east end of Upper Canada, and seventeen on the shores of Lake Huron, Western end of said province - I have made a visit to fatherland. In view of the great deception imposed upon emigrants and the British public by mere strangers and self-interested railway passengers, that know very little more of the real state of the country than a balloon passenger, praising or railing, as will serve the interests of the landholder of England or landseller of Canada, I thought it a needful and most useful service to my countrymen to lay before them a plain, practical matter-of-fact statement, on which they might safely rely in deciding a question on which the. good of millions so much depends. There is no land speculator under heaven that knows just now of my writing, neither have I an acre of land to sell, nor any selfish end to serve by coloured or false statements; and as I intend to return to my charge in a few months, my own character is fully at stake by my people - very good judges of all I relate -especially the emigrant's trials and prospects, with all that concerns bush life, having been emigrants themselves. I have not been locked up in an office, store, or cloister. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In nineteenth century paintings, the proud Indian warrior and the Scottish Highland chief appear in similar ways--colorful and wild, righteous and warlike, the last of their kind. Earlier accounts depict both as barbarians, lacking in culture and in need of civilization. By the nineteenth century, intermarriage and cultural contact between the two--described during the Seven Years' War as cousins--was such that Cree, Mohawk, Cherokee, and Salish were often spoken with Gaelic accents. In this imaginative work of imperial and tribal history, Colin Calloway examines why these two seemingly wildly disparate groups appear to have so much in common. Both Highland clans and Native American societies underwent parallel experiences on the peripheries of Britain's empire, and often encountered one another on the frontier. Indeed, Highlanders and American Indians fought, traded, and lived together. Both groups were treated as tribal peoples--remnants of a barbaric past--and eventually forced from their ancestral lands as their traditional food sources--cattle in the Highlands and bison on the Great Plains--were decimated to make way for livestock farming. In a familiar pattern, the cultures that conquered them would later romanticize the very ways of life they had destroyed. White People, Indians, and Highlanders illustrates how these groups alternately resisted and accommodated the cultural and economic assault of colonialism, before their eventual dispossession during the Highland Clearances and Indian Removals. What emerges is a finely-drawn portrait of how indigenous peoples with their own rich identities experienced cultural change, economic transformation, and demographic dislocation amidst the growing power of the British and American empires.

American Civil Wars takes readers beyond the battlefields and sectional divides of the U.S. Civil War to view the conflict from outside the national arena of the United States. Contributors position the American conflict squarely in the context of a wider transnational crisis across the Atlantic world, marked by a multitude of civil wars, European invasions and occupations, revolutionary independence movements, and slave uprisings—all taking place in the tumultuous decade of the 1860s. The multiple conflicts described in these essays illustrate how the United States' sectional strife was caught up in a larger, complex struggle in which nations and empires on both sides of the Atlantic vied for the control of the future. These struggles were all part of a vast web, connecting not just Washington and Richmond but also Mexico City, Havana, Santo Domingo, and Rio de Janeiro and--on the other side of the Atlantic--London, Paris, Madrid, and Rome. This volume breaks new ground by charting a hemispheric upheaval and expanding Civil War scholarship into the realms of transnational and imperial history. American Civil Wars creates new connections between the uprisings and civil wars in and outside of American borders and places the United States within a global context of other nations.
