This is the story of an ambitious boy from Loyal Hill, in the village of Summerville on the Avon River in Hants County, who became a respected figure in the business community. Hon. MacCallum Grant served as Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia from 1916 to 1925, the last Nova Scotian to be appointed to two full terms as the King's representative. He created a new standard for the occupants of the viceregal office, reaching out to minorities and utilizing his charm and humour to engage everyone he met. Presiding By Desire - Nova Scotia's Popular Lieutenant Governor: Hon. MacCallum Grant by Scott J. Burke chronicles Grant's activities as lieutenant governor, highlighting significant events during his eight years at Government House. His terms in office encompassed the First World War and the Halifax Explosion. He played host to famous visitors including the Prince of Wales, and travelled to Washington to meet a president at the White House. Includes bibliographical references and index.

This edited collection offers a broad reinterpretation of the origins of Canada. Drawing on cutting-edge research in a number of fields, Violence, Order, and Unrest explores the development of British North America from the mid-eighteenth century through the aftermath of Confederation. The chapters cover an ambitious range of topics, from Indigenous culture to municipal politics, public executions to runaway slave advertisements. Cumulatively, this book examines the diversity of Indigenous and colonial experiences across northern North America and provides fresh perspectives on the crucial roles of violence and unrest in attempts to establish British authority in Indigenous territories. Drawing on specific case studies of law and state formation in English and French Canada, Violence, Order, and Unrest considers patterns of settler colonialism across the century before Confederation. The result is a collection that brings together innovative research in different fields to reconsider the ideology, governance, and political culture that underpinned British North America. In the aftermath of Canada 150, Violence, Order, and Unrest offers a timely contribution to current debates over the nature of Canadian culture and history. It demonstrates that we cannot understand Canada today without considering its origins as a colonial project.
