Meer over het boek

Focusing on the 1860 goodwill mission of Prince Albert Edward, later King Edward VII, this work delves into the extravagant civic celebrations that marked his visit to Canada and the United States. Ian Radforth utilizes diverse accounts to explore the social tensions and cultural values of the era, revealing how public displays often highlighted social divisions. Key themes include the Orange-Green conflict, First Nations' representation, and the implications of race and gender. This insightful study enhances understanding of public spectacle, colonial identities, and the monarchy's role in shaping national narratives.
