| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "The History of the Post Office in British North America" by William Smith is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work chronicles the establishment and evolution of the postal service in Canada from 1639 until 1870, providing insights into how postal communication developed in the context of both colonial governance and inter-colonial relations. The book addresses not only the origins of postal services in Canada but also its ties to the broader colonial postal system that informed its growth. The opening of this account introduces readers to significant historical figures like Benjamin Franklin, who played a crucial role in the early postal services connecting Canada to other colonies. Smith discusses how Franklin established a post office in Quebec and initiated a network of communication that linked Canadian cities with New York as part of the larger colonial postal system. Furthermore, it explores earlier attempts to institute postal services in North America, outlining the challenges and adaptations required to enhance communication in a rapidly developing society, setting the stage for a more comprehensive understanding of the intricacies involved in the establishment of a functional postal network throughout British North America.
