Title |
La bibliothèque personnelle du gouverneur Dalhousie
|
Abstract |
During his time in Quebec City from 1820 to 1828, Governor George Ramsay, Earl of Dalhousie, (1770-1838) kept a considerable library of several hundred books in his apartments in the Château Saint-Louis. The author points out that many of these volumes reflected his political interests, his Scottish roots and his passion for the natural sciences. The author seeks to understand the man through his personal, political and military experiences and to reveal certain aspects of his character by taking a closer look at his library.
