The book has been widely praised by scholars as a sensitive and perceptive portrait of small-town Ontario at the turn of the twentieth century, and at the social mores of the time and place. While it has been lauded for its subtle grasp of women's place in society, it has also been criticized for focusing on upper-class and middle-class people over workers and the poor, and for its brutally racist depiction of Aboriginal people\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sara Jeanette Duncan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1543127843\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781543127843\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Sara Jeanette Duncan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48153751060735,"sku":"9781543127843","price":11.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_05faeebd-ffae-4cab-9813-c3ff35ba21c5.jpg?v=1770785582","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-imperialist-1904-by-sara-jeanette-duncan-9781543127843","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
