In turn, travel writers react in part to destinations in line with their expectations. While several scholars have documented such patterns elsewhere, these have remained understudied in the case of Quebec despite the frequency with which the province was branded and rebranded and its status as a major North American travel destination in the decades leading up to Expo 67. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe first comprehensive history of Quebec tourism promotion and travel writing, \u003ci\u003eFrom Old Quebec to La Belle Province \u003c\/i\u003edetails changing marketing strategies and shows how these efforts consistently mirrored and strengthened French Quebec's evolving national identity. Nicole Neatby also takes into account the contentious role of English-speaking promoters in Montreal, belying the view that Quebec was unvaryingly represented and appreciated for being \"old.\" Taking a comparative approach, Neatby draws on books and a wide array of newspapers, popular and specialized magazines, and written and visual sources from outside the tourist genre to reveal how the distinct national and cultural identities of English Canadians, Americans, and French Quebecers profoundly shaped their expectations and reactions to the province. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom Old Quebec to La Belle Province \u003c\/i\u003etraces and explains shifting promotional priorities for tourism and travel writers' varying reactions over the course of four decades, and how these attitudes harmonized with evolving national identities.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNicole Neatby is associate professor in the Department of History at Saint Mary's University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 360\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.2 x 6.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 30, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46763718148293,"sku":"9780773554962","price":70.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/PDE2oGtvS09780773554962.webp?v=1787187228","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/from-old-quebec-to-la-belle-province-tourism-promotion-travel-writing-and-national-identities-1920-1967-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
