Book excerpt: Excerpt from Re-Settlement and Cultivation of Land in British Columbia: An Address Delivered Before St. John's Literary Society, Vancouver, British Columbia, January 12th, 1915 The son of a fruit grower in the Garden of Scotland. I was born in an orchard. And from infancy had daily opportunities of le:1r11111g the details of fruit raising and marketing. And the cultivation of field crops and stock feeding. In early manhood I was appointed secretary to a district horticultural society, and, during 1111 tenure of that office frequently met the leading horticulturists o1 er a 111de area. For many years. My occupation 11 as in the city of Edinburgh. But I resided outside the city and had a small garden, in which I carried on experiments in cultivation. A break in my career occurred during the lloer war. And I then came to British Columbia and obtained a free homestead in Coquitlam. Where I carried on operations in the heart of the primeval forest. And spent ten 1ears in clearing and forming a fruit orchard. My plan of bringin1r out 1111 fan1il1 at the end of two 1cars 111iscarried. An illus tration of the truth that the best laid schemes 0 mice and men orang aft a1rley. In 1outh. I had read 7i1nmerman on Solitude. But my practice of what he regarded as a book11orn1s virtue. Was i111olui1tar1. And. Instead of being bestowed upon paper and ink productions. My studies were mostly devoted to the grandest of all scientific works. The great book of nature. Pural life brings one into daily contact with the wonders and beauties of creation as revealed in geology. Botany. And natural history. Meteorology offers an endless variety of phenomena: astronomy reveals by (lily the ever - changing but regular course of the unwearied sun. The great source of all our planetary health and energy. While. In the nights. When the darkness is greatest. We are privileged to gaze into the unfathomable depths of the universe beyond. And realize to the full the meaning of the oft-quoted line. The heavens are telling the glory of God. When such passages are set to music. As they are most appropriately in Hadyn's oratorio. Creation, any doubts as to the existence of a Divinity must vanish for ever. The study of astronomy shows i1s the insignificance of man and all his works. And the planet we inhabit to be a mere speck of dust in the great umverse. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Creating a Modern Countryside by : James Murton
Download or read book Creating a Modern Countryside written by James Murton and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1900s, British Columbia embarked on a brief but intense effort to manufacture a modern countryside. The government wished to reward Great War veterans with new lives: settlers would benefit from living in a rural community, considered a more healthy and moral alternative to urban life. But the fundamental reason for the land resettlement project was the rise of progressive or “new liberal” thinking, as reformers advocated an expanded role for the state in guaranteeing the prosperity and economic security of its citizens. James Murton examines how this process unfolded, and demonstrates how the human-environment relationship of the early twentieth century shaped the province as it is today.

Download or read book The Resettlement of British Columbia written by Cole Harris and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this beautifully crafted collection of essays, Cole Harris reflects on the strategies of colonialism in British Columbia during the first 150 years after the arrival of European settlers. The pervasive displacement of indigenous people by the newcomers, the mechanisms by which it was accomplished, and the resulting effects on the landscape, social life, and history of Canada's western-most province are examined through the dual lenses of post-colonial theory and empirical data. By providing a compelling look at the colonial construction of the province, the book revises existing perceptions of the history and geography of British Columbia.

Book Synopsis Contesting Rural Space by : R.W. Sandwell
Download or read book Contesting Rural Space written by R.W. Sandwell and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2005-05-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intriguing mix of African-American, First Nation, Hawaiian, and European, the early residents of Saltspring Island were neither successful farmers nor full-time waged workers, neither squatters nor bona-fide landowners. Contesting Rural Space explores how these early settlers created and sustained a distinctive society, culture, and economy. In the late nineteenth century, residents claiming land on Saltspring Island walked a careful line between following mandatory homestead policies and manipulating these policies for their own purposes. The residents favoured security over risk and modest sufficiency over accumulation of wealth. Government land policies, however, were based on an idea of rural settlement as commercially successful family farms run by sober and respectable men. Settlers on Saltspring Island, deterred by the poor quality of farmland but encouraged by the variety of part-time, off-farm remunerative occupations, the temperate climate, First Nations cultural and economic practices, and the natural abundance of the Gulf Island environment, made their own choices about the appropriate uses of rural lands. R.W. Sandwell shows how the emerging culture differed from both urban society and ideals of rural society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nine essays reflect on the strategies of colonialism in British Columbia during the first 150 years after the arrival of European settlers. Peering through the dual lenses of post-colonial theory and empirical data, the author considers Native disease and depopulation; the means by which fur traders consolidated their position in Native territories; the introduction of British property law, and the methods of surveillance and disciplinary power that accompanied it; the progressive destruction of distance and the repossession of land; and the cultural assumptions of missionaries and settlers.

Book Synopsis Colonial Lives of Property by : Brenna Bhandar
Download or read book Colonial Lives of Property written by Brenna Bhandar and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-25 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Colonial Lives of Property Brenna Bhandar examines how modern property law contributes to the formation of racial subjects in settler colonies and to the development of racial capitalism. Examining both historical cases and ongoing processes of settler colonialism in Canada, Australia, and Israel and Palestine, Bhandar shows how the colonial appropriation of indigenous lands depends upon ideologies of European racial superiority as well as upon legal narratives that equate civilized life with English concepts of property. In this way, property law legitimates and rationalizes settler colonial practices while it racializes those deemed unfit to own property. The solution to these enduring racial and economic inequities, Bhandar demonstrates, requires developing a new political imaginary of property in which freedom is connected to shared practices of use and community rather than individual possession.
