About the Author

Gilbert Parker (1862–1932) was born in Camden East, Canada West (Ontario). After his move to England in 1890, he began the two careers for which he is best known today: the British director of American propaganda during the Great War and the author of thirty popular novels, most of them historical romances, including The Seats of the Mighty (1896).

Andrea Cabajsky is an assistant professor at the Université de Moncton, where she teaches and does research in comparative literature, especially English- and French-Canadian Studies. She has published widely on the literary history of nationalism in romantic and Victorian Canadian and British literatures and is currently developing the curriculum for an approved new master’s program in comparative Canadian literature at the Université de Moncton.

Lee Armstrong
4.0 out of 5 stars Dust It Off
Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2019
My copy of Gilbert Parker's "The Seats of the Mighty: A Romance of Old Quebec" was published by A. L. Burt Company, copyrighted 1896, 1905; so this is the closest listing I can find. The story follows Captain Robert Moray of the Virginia Regiment. Hostilities between the U.S. and New France (Quebec) resulted in the arrest of Moray. He is in possession of compromising letters Madame La Pompadour which triggers his nemesis Timor Doltaire, a high official in Quebec, to have him arrested. Moray is quartered at the house of Mr. Duvarney whose daughter Alixe becomes the object of affection for both Moray and Doltaire, which is the spine conflict of the book. I enjoyed the book, but it does bog down occasionally as Parker indulges in pages of description when this reader wanted more romance or action. But that said, it is an interesting tale, worthy of being dusted off. Enjoy!
