The intimate diary of a nineteenth-century Scottish clergyman in Frelighsburg, Quebec.
"This is not only a fascinating diary that permits a wider appreciation of the social and cultural role of the Church of England during a period of rapid social and political change, but Reisner's strong introduction and critical apparatus firmly anchors Rev. James Reid within the religious and social world of the Eastern Townships of Quebec ... This is a fine scholarly edition of these remarkable diaries." Michael Gauvreau, Department of History, McMaster University "It is a privilege to read a work of scholarship as distinguished and meticulous as this ... the scholarship is more than sound; it is exceptional." David Bentley, Department of English, University of Western Ontario "Impressive, as autobiography, as social history, as political and theological history. Reisner's contributions are extraordinary." Thomas E. Tausky, Department of English, University of Western Ontario
