Summary: "One of the boldest building-projects of the nineteenth century was. the construction of the church of Notre-Dame in Montreal. Officially opened in 1829Notre-Dame was the first major example of Gothic Revival style in Canada. Treating Notre-Dam not only as a work of art but also as a historical document reflecting the social and nationalistic aspirations of the community, the author evaluates its significance in the shifting balance between church and state, clerics and laymen, and French and English in the crucial years between the war of 1812 and the rebellion of 1837" - From the Jacket
