The Gibbet Of Regina; The Truth About Riel; Sir John A. MacDonald And His Cabinet Before Public Opinion

By One Who Knows

Book Overview

""The Gibbet of Regina"" is a book that uncovers the truth about the controversial execution of Louis Riel, a M�����tis leader who fought for the rights of his people in Canada. Written by an anonymous author who claims to know the inside story, the book reveals the political motives behind Riel's trial and execution, and sheds light on the role of Sir John A. MacDonald and his Cabinet in this historic event. The author argues that Riel was unfairly portrayed as a traitor and a madman, and that his execution was a political move to appease English-speaking Canadians and consolidate power in the government. The book also explores the cultural and social tensions between the M�����tis and the dominant Anglo-Canadian society, and the legacy of Riel's struggle for indigenous rights. Overall, ""The Gibbet of Regina"" is a thought-provoking and controversial account of one of Canada's most divisive historical moments.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
