‘In the Midst of Three Fires, a French one, an American one, and an Indian one’: Imperial-Indigenous Negotiations during the War of 1812 in Eastern British America
Open AccessJohn G ReidARTICLELondon Journal of Canadian Studies2021
This essay argues that the War of 1812 in Eastern British America, despite the near-absence of land-based conflict in this region, marked a turning point in an imperial-Indigenous relationship that differed notably from comparable relationships elsewhere in North America because of the relatively late advent of substantial settler colonization. Diplomacy, which led in 1812 to the conclusion of a series of neutrality agreements in the borderland j…
Scots, Settler Colonization and Indigenous Displacement: Mi'kma'ki, 1770–1820, in Comparative Context
Open AccessJohn G ReidARTICLEJournal of Scottish Historical…2018Cited by: 1References: 2
This article notes that while sophisticated study of Scottish intellectual analyses of global Indigenous societies and their significance has been longstanding among historians, until recently less attention has been given to the implications of Scottish settlement for specific Indigenous peoples. Historians have debated whether there is a distinctly Scottish pattern of dealings with Indigenous populations, or whether such interactions are best u…
The Cricketers of Digby and Yarmouth Counties, Nova Scotia, 1871-1914: Social Roots of a Village and Small-Town Sport
John G ReidARTICLEHistoire sociale2018References: 2
Cricket in Nova Scotia, up until 1914, was a complex and deeply rooted sport. Rural and small-town cricket has attracted little historiographical attention, and yet multiple cricket clubs existed in villages and small towns. The adjoining counties of Digby and Yarmouth form a subregion in the southwestern part of the province where the social roots of cricket can be gauged and analysed. This essay argues that cricket long retained its place as a …

Open AccessJane H Reid, John G ReidARTICLELondon Journal of Canadian Studies2016
The Maritime provinces of Canada share with many other nations the experience of nineteenth-century industrialization and twentieth-century deindustrialization. For deindustrialized areas, the social and environmental pressures imposed by deindustrialization are frequently held to be open to mitigation through urban regeneration projects that seek to build on existing cultural heritage and ultimately enable communities to thrive in both cultural …

John G Reid, Robert D Reid et al.ARTICLEJournal of Sport History2015References: 2
Engaging with the historiography of sport diffusion, and taking two major sports as divergent case studies, this essay explores the process of discursive stabilization that drew upon a broad complex of social and cultural antecedents. While more generalized organizational and institutional factors were important influences on the contrasting evolutions of cricket and ice hockey in Canada’s Maritime provinces during a period of intense social and …
