McKenzie, Daniel (1769?-1832) [info]. A letter to the Rt. Hon. the Earl of Selkirk, in answer to a pamphlet entitled "A postscript to the statement respecting the Earl of Selkirk's settlement on the Red River in North-America". Sandwich, Upper Canada: s.n, 1818.

Physical description: 8 p.; 23 cm.

Language: English

Text in double columns. One of the rarest pamphlets in the literature of the Selkirk controversy (Canadian historical review , 13 (1932):45-50). Unlike the usual publishing attribution, Wallace declared this "was written, but not printed, at Sandwich, Upper Canada" (Canadian dictionary of biography , 466). For the work to which this is a response, see Peel 103.
