Excerpt from The French Canadian in Quebec and New England
His home is chie?y in the province of Quebec, of which Voltaire contemptuously said in 1763, after its cession to England Only a few thousand acres of snow Superabundant snow, indeed, in winter but in summer a land that compares favorably with the northern regions of New England. The region south of the St. Lawrence, about fifty by one hundred and fifty miles, between Montreal and the boundary of the United States, is very fertile, as also some sections north of the river. Below Quebec the soil is poorer. Her great pine forests have been a source of wealth.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the clash of civilizations that unfolded in North America, specifically contrasting the Protestant English colonies and the Catholic French settlements in Canada. The author embarks on a journey, drawing vivid comparisons between iconic locations like Plymouth, Massachusetts, and Quebec City, highlighting the stark differences in their founding principles, cultural values, and societal outcomes. The narrative explores the historical roots of these divergent paths, tracing the influence of figures like the Pilgrims and the Jesuits, and examining the impact of religious beliefs on political systems, education, and social structures. The author delves into the complexities of Canadian loyalty, the role of the Catholic Church in shaping Quebec's society, and the challenges faced by Protestant communities within a predominantly Catholic environment. Through meticulous observations and insightful analysis, the book sheds light on the enduring legacy of these contrasting civilizations, exploring themes of religious freedom, political power, cultural assimilation, and the quest for identity.
