Publisher description
Excerpt from The Canadian Contingents and Canadian Imperialism: A Story and a Study Canada's active participation in the South African war was an event of the first importance in Canadian history. Whether we study the conditions that made it possible, the manner in which it was conducted, or the immediate effects, or speculate on the permanent results, we find ourselves face to face with the most interesting and most serious problems in Canadian national life. To take part in an arduous undertaking which all the world watches; to pay the price; to know that sense of comradeship with other peoples which comes as a revelation when common action compels mutual respect; to realise what had been visionary; to feel the strain of anxiety and the rebound of jubilation; to have the deep consciousness of worthiness, tested and proved, is a momentous experience for any people. For a young people such an experience is apt to be of critical significance. In the following pages I shall endeavour to report the experience of the Canadian people during the months in which the South African war was an agitating cause.
