177623234London 1776. Hardcover. Near fine. Folio. Second edition of this important report first issued in 1749 and bound here as issued with 12 other committee reports first published between 1737 and 1765. Folio 486 pp with one folding map not related to the Hudson's Bay report in a later binding of quarter leather and marbled boards. Each report has its own title page but a title page for the full volume is lacking; otherwise a fine copy. According to ESTC N69513 four volumes of these committee reports were officially ordered to be printed on 28 June 1773 and were published in 1774-1776. They were reprinted along with 11 additional volumes and an index between 1803 and 1820. The 1803 reprint of this report is commonly found but this 1776 edition is scarce. See Peel 26 TPL 213. In 1749 the House of Commons appointed a committee of enquiry into the lands and trade of the Hudson's Bay Company HBC. It was undertaken as a result of a petition made by a group led by Irishman Arthur Dobbs who hoped to have the HBC''s trade monopoly revoked on the grounds that their policies had led to a loss of British control of the fur trade and that showed little interest in promoting expeditions in search of the Northwest Passage. The Report offers a history of the Company from its formation and includes the journal of Joseph La France a pioneer trader with the Indians inhabiting the region of the Great Lake who describes visits into French Canada the state of the fortresses there and French trade with the Indians. It also includes testimony given before the Committee by many witnesses including serveral people employed by the HBC as well as merchants engaged in trade in HBC territory. The Appendix includes the text of the HBC's charter a list of vessels sent by the HBC in search of a Northwest Passage tables of the HBC's annual sales and exports "A Journal of a Voyage and Journey undertaken by Henry Kelsey to discover and endeavour to bring to a Commerce the Naywatamee Poets an unidentified people who may have been the Hidatsa or Gros Ventre 1691" and much other interesting material. hardcover

18449900044888Kingston ON: Chronicle & Gazette Office 1844. 1st printing. Stapled Wraps. pp. 20. 8vo. An original stitched printed pamphlet. Pages age-toned but otherwise unmarked. Overall in very good condition and a scarce item. Denis-Benjamin Viger 1774-1861 was a 19th-century politician lawyer businessman and Patriote movement member from Lower Canada. He was born in Montreal and his father had represented the Montreal East district in the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada from 1796 to 1800. In 1808 Viger married and he was elected to the Legislative Assembly for Montreal East in 1808 and 1810 then in Leinster in 1810 and 1814 and in Kent in 1816 1820 1824 and 1827. Prominent in the Patriote movement and denounced as the owner of seditious newspapers Viger was imprisoned in 1838 when martial law was imposed in Lower Canada. He refused to post bail to protest the enforcement of martial law and demanded a regular trial. Consequently he was not released until May 1840. In 1841 he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of the United Canadas. From December 12 1843 to June 17 1846 he was one of the joint premiers of the Province of Canada. Viger died in Montreal in 1861. When this pamphlet was published Viger was one of the Canada's 'joint' Prime Ministers. There was at that time considerable discontent amongst French Canadians that he had abandoned their interests by acquiescing in the authority of the Governor-General appointed by the British. He sought to defend his actions in pamphlet form which prompted this 'anonymous' response actually written by Francis Hincks 1807-1885.

198283700782Winnipeg Manitoba Canada: Ad hoc Winnipeg Committee of Unemployed Youth and Veterans of the Great Depression 1982. Book. Very Good. Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 72 pages. Circa 1982-83. Perhaps the first book to be written by workers on the question of Canada's entering the second depression. Their dismay at finding another generation of young families faced with the same prospects of unemployment has prompted them to compile an outline of world and national development leading to recurring crises in private enterprise systems. The authors have used a historical materialist approach in attempting to make the history and background of depressions understandable to the average working class reader.
