The Old Rgime in Canada

1894. Parkman, American historian, studied and wrote about the history of Canada and the early Northwest. The monarchical administration of France, at the height of its power and at the moment of its supreme triumph, stretched an arm across the Atlantic and grasped the North American continent. This volume attempts to show by what methods it strove to make good its hold, why it achieved a certain kind of success, and why it failed at last.Parkman, Francis is the author of 'The Old Rgime in Canada', published 2007 under ISBN 9780548007617 and ISBN 0548007616.
