Minnesota and the Manifest Destiny of the Canadian Northwest

Minnesota and the Manifest Destiny of the Canadian Northwest

Alvin C. Gluek Jr.

University of Toronto Press
1965
pokkari
From the Lake of the Woods to the Rocky Mountains, only a line separates Canada from the United States—the mute evidence of each nation's manifest destiny. As a boundary, the 49th parallel is entirely manmade and will never really divide the Northern Great Plains, for it is a region at once geographically and historically united. Certainly from 1821 to 1869-70, the years limiting this study, a unity was most evident; the history of the British Northwest was inextricably bound up with that of the American Northwest. Professor Gluek gives here a detailed and engrossing account of the complex relationship that developed between St. Paul and the Red River Settlement from 1821 to 1870. During this time, despite attempts by the Hudson's Bay Company to discourage free trade, the Red River Valley became the bridge upon which a broad economy was built. The economic bond was strengthened by the 1850's when Minnesota's transportation system to the outside world became so efficient that even the Company began to use it. Minnesotan dreams of engrossing all the commerce of the Northwest, and perhaps gaining Manitoba by default, were frustrated by the failure to renew the Reciprocity Treaty of 1854 and Canada's efforts to obtain Rupert's Land. Minnesota became militantly expansionist, but, despite her pleas in the late 1850's and 1860's for active United States intervention, little was really done. With distinctly superior diplomatic skills, Canada's first Prime Minister, Sir John A. Macdonald, bested his American adversaries, won the Northwest for his young country, and assured it of transcontinental greatness. All of those who are interested in Canadian and American history—both the professional historian and everyone who is fascinated by the romance of the West—will enjoy this lively, well-written record of the people and the events of an important period in Canadian-American relations.

Three generations of a Southern family during the antebellum and civil war periods provide the novel's story. Andrew Blackstone, family patriarch, son of an alcoholic father and bastard mother, and raised in poverty, acquires a fortune through the illegal slave trade. Determined to achieve economic and social dominance in Williamsburg, Virginia, he marries into the aristocratic Wellworth family, which is rich in ancestry but poor in purse. His wife, Rebecca Wellworth, is raised by slave Momma Joe until the age of eight years when her father sells Momma Jo. Years later, Rebecca wants to buy back Momma Jo but learns that she died, leaving two sons, Michael and Gabriel, whom Rebecca buys then frees. Michael meets John Brown and participates in the Pottawatomie massacre. Other antebellum events, including the Fugitive Slave Act, Underground Railroad, and the Kansas-Nebraska Act incorporated into the story, also severely impact the family. Rebecca gives birth to twins, Jackson and Arabella, who grow up during a time of increased tension between north and south that progresses to civil war. The twins die as young adults after marrying and having children--Arabella, a son Robert; and Jackson, twins Luke and Lydia. The twins are raised by their grandparents. Robert is raised by his father. The grandchildren are young adults when the civil war begins. Robert is a physician, and Luke is a West Point cadet. Lydia is married to Luke's roommate Clayton Driscoll. It's the grandchildren who are most affected by the civil war, most notably the Battles of Bull Run, Winchester, Gettysburg, and the Saltville Massacre, where Robert's best friend, a former slave named Samuel Black, is killed. The novel ends with the death of Andrew Blackstone.

March 1, 2021, Peace Corps turns sixty. Its mission-to teach a skill and to spread the Peace Corps brand of goodwill around the world-still resonates. In No Greater Service, author Alvin J. Hower highlights its relevance yesterday, today, and the years to come. This memoir offers a stirring, personal, vivid, and action-packed account of a Peace Corps volunteer's remarkable life in the underserved areas of the southern Philippines. With curiosity, empathy, and wry humor, Hower creates a distinct Peace Corps photo memoir. An avid photographer, he produced more than 5,000 images of everyday people and the awe-inspiring beauty of a nation of 7,641 islands. He was a teacher and social worker in General Santos City, and a management consultant for a mission school in the remote mountains of Lake Sebu, Surallah, working and living with the indigenous T'boli people featured in the August 1971 National Geographic Magazine. No Greater Service also serves as a history of his host country, providing information about its complex customs and traditions as well as the notable stories of Filipinos he met and their fascinating updates fifty years later. At times hilarious, others sad and grim, it also shares a love story of his romantic alliance with a Filipina girl.
