The Makers of Canada: Lord Elgin is a biography written by Duncan Campbell Scott and published in 1905. The book tells the story of James Bruce, the 8th Earl of Elgin, who served as Governor General of Canada from 1847 to 1854. Elgin was a controversial figure who is best known for his role in the Rebellion Losses Bill controversy, which led to riots in Montreal in 1849. The book explores Elgin's life and career, including his early years in Scotland, his time as Governor General of Jamaica, and his work as a diplomat in China. It also examines his impact on Canadian politics and society, and his efforts to promote responsible government and improve relations between English and French Canadians. The Makers of Canada: Lord Elgin is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Canadian history and politics, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of Canada's most important historical figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
