Book Synopsis
A historical perspective on public life and popular politics in the streets of Montreal.

Trade Review
"Beginning with the end of the 1837–38 rebellions and continuing through to the burning of Parliament buildings in 1849, Horner examines how workers, political reformers, established elites, and the Catholic Church used the city's public spaces to advance their interests. What distinguishes this work is the author's use of newspaper accounts and government records from the period, including judicial archives, as he presents a picture of a contentious time in the city's history. Recommended." Choice
