It presents research from the perspective of Canada\u0026amp;#x2019;s regions, with one chapter focusing exclusively on the competing understandings of 1867 from the perspective of Quebec. Next, it includes material pertaining to the geopolitical underpinnings of 1867 that addresses the relationship between Confederation, the U.S. Civil War and American expansionism, Great Britain and war in the European theatre. Also included is leading scholarship by Stanley B. Ryerson, Adele Perry, Fernand Dumond, Ian McKay and James W. Daschuk that questions whether Confederation itself was a formative event. Together with its companion volume, this is an invaluable resource for those who wish to deepen their understanding of the historical foundations on which Canada rests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eV From Canada East to Quebec\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe French Canadians and the Birth of Confederation\u003cbr\u003eJean-Charles Bonenfant\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrench Canadians and the Founding of Confederation\u003cbr\u003eLionel Groulx\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Negation of a Nation: The Quebec Cultural Identity and Canadian Federalism \u003cbr\u003eEugénie Brouillet\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCanada and Its Aims, According to Macdonald, Laurier, Mackenzie King and Trudeau\u003cbr\u003eStéphane Kelly\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe French-Canadian Idea of Confederation, 1864-1900\u003cbr\u003eA.I.
