A stirring, timely reappearance of a pivotal voice from Canada’s past. A public address that speaks across a century with clarity, urgency, and a rare moral gravitas.N. A. Belcourt’s 1916 discourse-addressed before the Quebec Canadian Club in a moment when bilingualism in canada and language policy debates shaped public life-emerges here as more than a speech. This edition preserves the form and rhythm of a landmark political oratory while sharpening the accessibility for today’s readers. It is both historical document and living argument, a historical speech transcript rendered legible for modern audiences and classroom study, with careful attention to the era’s rhetoric and its enduring questions about francophone anglo relations and national identity. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today’s and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector’s item and a cultural treasure. This is essential reading for anyone exploring early twentieth century canada, public policy research, and the evolution of bilingual discourse. It rewards casual readers with human, exact, and pointed prose, while offering scholars and history enthusiasts a tangible link to quebec 1916 locale and the broader currents of canadian political oratory. A heritage text that belongs in every history classroom, every library of literature and public life, and every collection of belcourt era canadian rhetoric.
