First published in 1925 and delivered as the Watson Chair Lectures to various British universities in the same year, this book examines the United States as a neighbour to Canada. Falconer analyses the shared history of the two countries and the similarities and differences between Canadian and American ways of life, as well as Canada's continued role as 'interpreter' between the United States and Britain. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in understanding the United States and the historical role of the United States on the North American continent.
