Publisher's Synopsis
French Treaty Rights in Newfoundland is a fascinating historical document that was written in response to the Convention of 1818 between the United States and Great Britain. The book argues that France never surrendered its claim to the French Shore of Newfoundland, and that the Convention violated the rights of French fishermen. Written by Alfred B. Morine, James Spearman Winter, and P.J. Scott, this book offers a unique perspective on the history of Newfoundland and the complex relationships between European powers in the 19th century.
