Documents Relating To The Seigniorial Tenure In Canada, 1598-1854 is a historical book written by William Bennett Munro and published in 1908. The book is a collection of various documents that relate to the seigniorial tenure system in Canada, which was a form of land ownership and governance introduced by the French in the 17th century. The book includes a historical introduction that provides context for the documents, explaining the origins and development of the seigniorial system in Canada. The introduction also discusses the impact of the system on the social, economic, and political landscape of Canada, as well as its eventual abolition in the mid-19th century.The documents themselves are a diverse collection of legal texts, official reports, and personal accounts that shed light on different aspects of the seigniorial system. They cover topics such as land grants, land use, taxation, and the relationship between seigneurs (landowners) and habitants (tenants). Munro provides explanatory notes throughout the book to help readers understand the significance of the documents and their relevance to the broader historical context. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Canada, particularly the development of its land ownership and governance systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
