Excerpt from The Greville Memoirs (Third and Concluding Part): A Journal of the Reign of Queen Victoria From 1852-1860 Nor am I less grateful for the reception this publication has met with from the world, which has far surpassed the modest expecta tions of the author, and has at last conveyed to the reader a just esti mate of the integrity and ability with which these Journals were written. They hear evident marks of the changes which are wrought in a man's character and judgments by the experience of life and the course of years; and they fall naturally into the three periods or di visions of Mr. Greville's life which I was led from other causes to adopt. In the first part he appears as a man of fashion and of pleas ure, plunged, as was not inconsistent with his age and his social posi tion, in the dissipation and the amusements of the day; but he was beginning to get tired of them. In the second part he enters with all the energy of which he was capable, though shackled by his official position, upon the great political struggles of the time - the earnest advocate of peace, of moderation, of justice, and of liberal principles - regarding with a discriminating eye and with some severity ofiv preface.

In Britain and the Origins of Canadian Confederation, 1837-1867, Ged Martin offers a sceptical review of claims that Confederation answered all the problems facing the provinces, and examines in detail British perceptions of Canada and ideas about its future. The major British contribution to the coming of Confederation is to be found not in the aftermath of the Quebec conference, where the imperial role was mainly one of bluff and exhortation, but prior to 1864, in a vague consensus among opinion-formers that the provinces would one day unite. Faced with an inescapable need to secure legislation at Westminster for a new political structure, British North American politicians found they could work within the context of a metropolitan preference for intercolonial union.
