Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book brings together primary source material to explore the British North American efforts to expand emigration to avoid the troubles of poverty and crime from 1848-1851. The author argues that the massive poverty rate, high crime rates, and constabulary costs could be drastically reduced by encouraging immigration to British colonies. The book suggests that the government should provide land incentives and build roads to increase emigration to Canada, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The author further argues that steam-powered ship travel would greatly reduce the dangers and high mortality rates associated with immigration voyages and increase the likelihood of return travel to Britain. The book also discusses the impact of immigration on the recipient colonies, and how it could improve trade and commerce. Ultimately, the author's perspective is that the British government has a duty to promote emigration and strengthen ties with their colonies to ensure their permanence within the British Empire.
