A Highly Favored Nation focuses on the ways late nineteenth-century
Canadians employed biblical texts to describe Canadian identity and
the meanings of their nation. Recognizing that many "ordinary"
Canadians who went about their day-to-day lives probably did not
have much interest in existential questions, this book focuses on
the words of Canada's nationalists, preachers, promoters, and
enthusiasts. A Highly Favored Nation challenges the common
nineteenth-century Protestant claim that Quebec was a Bible-free
zone and it suggests that, by the end of the nineteenth century,
Canadians' public use of Scripture had diminished the Bible's
cultural authority.
