| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Canada and the States" by Sir E. W. Watkin is a historical account reflecting on the author’s experiences in North America between 1851 and 1886. Written during the late 19th century, this work provides both a personal narrative and a broader commentary on the political and economic developments in Canada and the United States during this transformative period. It primarily addresses the significance of the Canadian Pacific Railway, the relationships between British colonies, and the impact of American influences on Canadian unity. At the start of the book, Watkin introduces his earlier travels to North America, recalling his initial visit for health reasons and subsequent journeys driven by political and business ambitions. He emphasizes the connection between the physical unification of Canada through railway construction and the broader political theme of maintaining allegiance to the British Empire. Watkin notes significant shifts in the socio-political landscape, including the end of slavery in the United States and the challenges faced by Canada to preserve its identity amid growing American proximity and influence. His narrative establishes a framework for exploring the implications of railroads as both infrastructure and symbols of imperial unity, setting the stage for the in-depth discussions that follow in the book.
