"The Baldwins of this book are those of the first three Canadian generations of a family that sailed from Ireland to Upper Canada in 1799 and which, before the end of the following half century, had left an indelible mark on Canadian political life. The Great Experiment was the introduction of responsible government which gave to the British Empire another century of life. This system of party government (by which Canada obtained self-government) is now so familiar that it is fascinating to watch here the vicissitudes of this "greatest of peaceful revolutions" which lasted for twenty years of uncompromising strugggle." ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 269 pages; Signed by All Authors .
