Responsible Government in Prince Edward Island: A Triumph of Self-Government Under the Crown is a historical account of the development of responsible government in Prince Edward Island, a province of Canada. Written by Walter Ross Livingston, a Canadian historian, the book explores the political, social, and economic factors that led to the establishment of responsible government in the province. The book begins by providing a brief history of Prince Edward Island, including its early settlement and the impact of the French and British colonial powers. The author then delves into the political landscape of the province in the early 19th century, when the demand for responsible government began to emerge. Livingston describes the various political movements and figures that played a role in the struggle for responsible government, including the Reform Party and its leader, George Coles. The book also examines the role of the British colonial government in the process, including the influence of key figures such as Lord Durham and Lord Elgin. Livingston provides a detailed account of the negotiations and compromises that ultimately led to the establishment of responsible government in Prince Edward Island in 1851. Throughout the book, Livingston explores the broader implications of the establishment of responsible government in Prince Edward Island, including its impact on the development of Canadian democracy and the relationship between the province and the British Crown. The book is well-researched and provides a comprehensive overview of this important period in Canadian history. It is recommended for anyone interested in Canadian politics or the history of Prince Edward Island.University Of Iowa Studies In The Social Sciences, V9, No. 4.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
