History of the Government of the Island of Newfoundland is a book written by John Reeves in 1793. It is a comprehensive account of the government and political history of Newfoundland, an island located off the east coast of Canada. The book covers the period from the earliest European settlements in the 16th century to the present day, with a particular focus on the period of British rule.Reeves provides a detailed account of the various forms of government that have existed on the island, including the early French and English colonial administrations, the establishment of a legislative assembly in the 1830s, and the eventual granting of responsible government in 1855. He also discusses the economic and social conditions of the island, including the fishing industry, the role of the Roman Catholic Church, and the relationship between the British government and the Newfoundland people.Throughout the book, Reeves draws on a wide range of primary sources, including government documents, newspapers, and personal accounts, to provide a rich and detailed picture of the island's history. He also includes a number of maps and illustrations to help readers visualize the island's geography and political structures.Overall, History of the Government of the Island of Newfoundland is an important historical document that provides a valuable insight into the political and social history of one of Canada's most unique regions.With An Appendix, Containing The Acts Of Parliament Made Respecting The Trade And Fishery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
