Abstract
[...]his focus on the Presbyterian worldview provides a rich and layered interpretive approach, encompassing not only religious institutions and doctrine but the natural environment and everyday life as well. [...]the author situates Canadian Presbyterianism within the transatlantic world, demonstrating how the larger context of Britain's “three kingdoms” (England, Ireland, and Scotland) ineluctably shaped the religious world of the Canadian colonists. [...]McKim offers helpful comparisons and contrasts between Canadian Presbyterians and their Anglo-American coreligionists.
