More about the book
The biography delves into the life and legacy of Thomas Chandler Haliburton, a prominent Canadian author known for his character Sam Slick, who gained immense popularity across Canada, England, and the U.S. Despite his diverse roles as a lawyer, judge, and politician, Haliburton's identity became intertwined with Slick, overshadowing his gentlemanly persona. Through over a decade of archival research, Richard A. Davies presents a nuanced portrayal of Haliburton, exploring his controversial nature and his impact on pre-confederation Nova Scotia's literary landscape.
