The Fourth Earl of Minto, who held this office from 1898 to 1904, is regarded by some Canadian historians as a romantic hero and by others as a bungling instrument of British imperialist designs. According to the author of this monograph, he was neither. Aided by an examination of Minto's early life and personal character and an analysis of the existing political institutions, the author describes the way in which Minto discharged his duties as Governor General during this period of political change in Canada and Britain. Informative and well documented, the study will be useful to students of Canadian history and politics. 606 $aHeads of state$zCanada$vBiography 607 $aCanada$xPolitics and government$y1867-1914 615 0$aHeads of state 676 $a971.05/6/0924 700 $aMiller$b Carman$f1940-$01090084 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154972703321 996 $aThe Canadian career of the Fourth Earl of Minto$92857790 997 $aUNINA
