More about the book
Focusing on the settlement period of Quebec's Eastern Townships, this work explores the distinct religious landscape that shaped English-Canadian identity. Unlike the radical evangelical movements in New England, the region saw the dominance of British-based denominations like the Church of England and Wesleyan Methodist Society. By examining how a shared culture diverged across the U.S.-Canada border, it highlights the overlooked history of Protestantism in Quebec, providing insights into the differing religious perspectives that emerged due to colonization.
