Summary:
When fighting broke out in November 1837 French Canada appeared to have launched a full scale revolution against its British masters. Joseph Schull's Rebellion is a passionate retelling of this time of armed uprising in Lower Canada, the conditions that led to it, the battles and reprisals and the aftermath. First published in 1971, Rebellion not only lays bare the roots of French Canada's anger but this remarkable and often tragic story concludes with the birth of the extraordinary French-English partnership that built this country.
