The diary finds him thirty years later as a moderate, if conservative, Anglican clergyman. Through this remarkable document, village routines and intrigues, as well as Reid's circle of friends and his clerical colleagues, come vividly to life. His private reflections on the tensions and growing pains experienced by the colonial church at a formative stage in its evolution, and his reaction to events on the wider political scene, give us valuable insights into his life and the times. Reid was a man of considerable complexity and his foibles and vanities are apparent in his narrative. The glimpses of his home life shed much light on gender relations and the history of the family. The diary has been edited and annotated by M.E. Reisner, who provides the background to Reid's narrative. Her informative biographical sketches, collected in an appendix, shed further light on representative local figures and the community dynamics of his town. The Diary of a Country Clergyman will be of interest to the general reader and social historian alike. 606 $aClergy$zQue?bec (Province)$zFrelighsburg$vDiaries 607 $aFrelighsburg (Que?bec)$vBiography 607 $aFrelighsburg (Que?bec)$xHistory 607 $aQue?bec (Province)$xSocial life and customs$y19th century 615 0$aClergy 676 $a283/.092 700 $aReid$b James$f1780-1865.$01545816 701 $aReisner$b M.
