The Struggle For The Border is a book written by Bruce Hutchison that delves into the history of the border between the United States and Canada. Through a series of vignettes, Hutchison explores the political, economic, and social factors that have shaped this boundary over the years, from its earliest days as a line on a map to its current status as a heavily militarized zone.The book covers a wide range of topics, including the role of the border in the War of 1812, the impact of the gold rush on cross-border relations, and the challenges faced by immigrants and refugees seeking to cross the border in search of a better life. Hutchison also examines the various attempts to resolve disputes over the border, from the Webster-Ashburton Treaty of 1842 to the modern-day efforts to manage trade and security concerns.Throughout the book, Hutchison brings to life the people who have shaped the border, from politicians and diplomats to smugglers and ordinary citizens. He also provides a nuanced perspective on the complex relationship between the United States and Canada, highlighting both the shared history and the ongoing tensions that continue to shape this important boundary.Overall, The Struggle For The Border is a compelling and informative read for anyone interested in the history of North America and the complex forces that have shaped its political and social landscape.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
