Cloth. 8vo, 270pp. This collection of Charles Mair's verse and the introduction to it are both presented on the assumption that a peculiarly Canadian 'goodness', literary nationalism -- or more precisely perhaps, the 'fever' on it--has been dissolved and that its cure is apparent in the healthy objectivity with which we now view our literary achievements, particularly those of the past........from the Introduction.

(iii)-lxxii, 470, [2] pp + 31 sepia tone plates. Page edges and endpapers yellowed, else a fine copy, no previous owner marks.

Volume XIV of the publisher's Masterworks of Canadian Authors series, edited by John W. Garvin, and not actually published until April, 1927. Contains an editor's foreword and a long introduction by Robert Norwood. In addition t o reprinting Mair's literary works from the 19th century, this contains the first book publication of his "Memoirs and Reminiscences" (pp xxxii-lix), a facsimile Mair letter, and a useful bibliography. Also reprints (pp 277-305) "The American Bison: Its Habits, Methods of Capture and Economic Use in the North-West, with Reference to Its Threatened Extinction and Possible Preservation", a paper from Transactions of the RSC, 1890, and (pp 307-462) his book THROUGH THE MACKENZIE BASIN: A Narrativ e of the Athabasca and Peace River Treaty Expedition of 1899 (Toronto: Briggs, 1908). Charles Mair, journalist, nationalist, and civil servant was one of the most important poets of 19th century Canadian literature. While on assignment for the Montreal Gazette during the first Riel Rebellion, he was captured by the rebels and very nearly escaped execution. He came back for the second Riel Rebellion from a stronger position, as a military officer. He lived most of this life in the Canadian West . Probably the best one volume representative collection of Mair's works.
