Title

A French-Canadian Education and the Persistence of 'La Franco-Américanie'

Description

From the author: "The migration of one million French Canadians from Québec to the United States between 1840 and 1940 was different from the migrations of other ethnic groups. The proximity of Québec made possible the maintenance of intimate social and cultural relationships between emigrants and their homeland. Thousands of Franco-Americans were educated in the colleges classiques of French Canada, assuring an ideological conformity between elite groups on both sides of the border and delaying the Americanization of Franco-Americans for several decades."
