Lord Minto was a British peer and politician who served as Governor General of Canada, the eighth since Canadian Confederation, and as Viceroy and Governor-General of India, the country's 17th. Minto was named Governor General of Canada in the summer of 1898, having campaigned for the post after he learned of the retirement of Lord Aberdeen. Lord Minto's term of office was marked by a period of strong nationalism which saw economic growth coupled with massive immigration to Canada. Relations with the United States were strained as border and fishing disputes continued to create problems between the two countries. In September 1901, after Queen Victoria's death in January, the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York (later to become King George V and Queen Mary) visited Canada, and travelled with Lady Minto to western Canada and the Klondike. Following the tour, Minto recommended Thomas Shaughnessy, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, to the government at Westminster, via the Secretary of State for the Colonies, for a knighthood, as recognition for his service to the Duke and Duchess of York. Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier, to whom Shaughnessy was no friend, opposed the idea; but, Minto made the recommendation anyway, invoking the ire of Laurier and prompting the Prime Minister to draft a policy dictating that all Canadian nominees for honors must be approved by the prime minister before the list was sent to London.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Presumed to be first editions (NAP). This is a very unique offering. Copies of The Plain View are quite rare, only a few individual copies are for sale on the Internet. This will be the Only offering of a large number of issues. Specifically, the 21 Journals are as follows: 'Autumn 1955, Winter 1955, Spring 1956, Summer 1956, Winter 1956, Summer 1957, Winter 1957, Spring 1958, Winter 1958, Summer 1959, Winter 1959, Summer 1960, Winter 1960, Spring in 1961, Winter 1961, Summer 1962, Winter 1962, Summer 1963, Winter 1963, Summer 1964, Winter 1964. They can also be identified as following: No. 2, Volume X; No. 3, Volume X; No. 4, Volume X; No.1 Volume XI; No. 2, Volume XI; No. 3, Volume XI; No. 4, Volume XI; No. 1, Volume XII; No.2, Volume XII; No.3, Volume XII; No. 4, Volume XII, No.1, Volume XIII; No.2, VOLUME XIII; No. 3, Volume XIII; No.4, Volume XIII; No.1, Volume XIV; No. 2, Volume XIV; No. 3, Volume XIV; No. 4, Volume XIV; No.1, Volume XV; No. 2, Volume XV. So as you can see, beginning with No.2 of Volume X in 1955 all of the Journals that were published are present through to the second Volume in 1964. Each Journal started with a Commentary which was followed by one to four essays and typically around four to eight book reviews. I've rated the Journals 'Very Good'. I scrolled slowly through all of them. I've provided photographs of the covers. They are, in the main, exceptionally clean. Three have one very tiny edge loss, one has a small loss at its rear bottom corner. On the fronts and rears combined on all the Journals I saw a total of only a few tiny edge tears. At the spines I'm seeing three with a little tearing and two with tiny losses at their ends. A half-dozen or so have corner creases, and there's some crinkling here and there. The pages are exceptionally clean in all of the Journals. Some pages in a number of them have light creasing at the corners, none touching the print. One has a sharper crease at the top corner of 20 consecutive pages. I saw one corner loss in one issue. Two pages in the Index of one Journal are cleanly detached. On the title page of one Journal there is a small stamp of the Bibliotheque J.P. Slack. There are no other markings or stamps in any of the other Journals. There are no attachments of any kind in any of the journals. I saw a tiny bit of penciling (typically 2 to 4 margin lines) in 6 of the 21 Journals. There is one red pen mark. No one wrote their name anywhere. The bindings of the Journals are excellent. In only one is there a slight binding issue with the covers attached but slightly pulling away from the textblock. 'Harold Blackham was the father of modern humanism. He perceived a humanist tradition--of free inquiry, human-centered ethics and a naturalistic worldview-- stretching from the ancient philosophers to the present day and sought to create a movement of organizations that would promote this tradition and engage in practical work to improve the condition of humanity. In Britain, he guided the development of this movement as a philosopher and scholar, and as principal administrator and activist. He founded the British Humanist Association, bringing together the disparate ethical and rationalist organizations that had existed in Britain since the mid 19th-century. In 1933, he went to London to become assistant to the social reformer Stanton Coit at the west London Ethical Society. With the second world war approaching, Blackham assisted in transporting Jewish refugees from Austria, and, in 1938, helped to organize what was to be the last great conference of the World Union of Freethinkers before the double onslaught of fascism and communism. After the war, Blackham set about re-establishing the free-thought and ethical movement under the new banner of 'humanism'. He founded a journal in 1944, The Plain View, which attracted the foremost thinkers of the day, from Julian Huxley to Gilbert Murray, in developing the humanist worldview.'.
