rif. elala6192London: John Murray 1832. Second Edition. The sketches are dated Goderich March 1832. “Neither statistical nor truthful it was designed to attract the “better” class of settlers. Dunlop included ironic comments on the ‘delights’ of Canadian cookery and was unable to refrain from witty and sarcastic remarks on the internal divisions among Presbyterian bodies and on the connection between Methodists and politics.” Story William ‘Tiger’ Dunlop who had previously been posted to Upper Canada in 1813 as acting surgeon of the 89th Regiment returned in 1826 with John Galt in the service of the Canada Company settling just north of Goderich. In 1829 he became inspector of the company’s lands and settlements and in 1833 general superintendent. Becoming increasingly critical of the company he finally resigned in 1838. From 1841 to 1845 he sat for Huron in the Legislative Assembly and thereafter he was superintendent of the Lachine Canal.

He discusses nature geography and the politics of the region including that of Tibet. Richard Henry Wallace Dunlop returned to Scotland where he married his second wife and had 5 children. His oldest Marion Wallace Dunlop became a leading suffragette and was the first to use a hunger strike to further women's suffrage. She claimed she and her father were descendants of Robert Burns' patron and of William Wallace's mother. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 318 pages . Richard Bentley hardcover
