Editorial Reviews
"Westfall has placed religion back into the centre of the interpretation of nineteenth-century Ontario history, where it undoubtedly belongs." Peter Buitenhuis, Globe & Mail.
"The general excellence of the research is matched by the grace with which it has been written." Julian Gwyn, Ottawa Citizen.
