Synopsis: This is the family correspondence of the Hale/Amherst families, who arrived in Canada after the Conquest. "Through the medium of one well-placed extended English family with established roots and connections throughout the growing British Empire, we are able to build a portrait of the power that was concentrated ... at Quebec. Their perspective on issues is very different from that of pauper emigrants or middle-class half-pay officers, and in some important ways it is very different from other Imperial office-holders, not many of whom have written personally about their experiences.
