Red River Insurrection: William McDougall¿¿¿¿¿¿¿s Conduct Reviewed is a historical book written by William McDougall in 1870. The book is a critical analysis of McDougall¿¿¿¿¿¿¿s own conduct during the Red River Rebellion, which took place in 1869-1870 in what is now Manitoba, Canada. The Red River Rebellion was a conflict between the M¿¿¿¿¿tis people, who were of mixed European and Indigenous ancestry, and the Canadian government. McDougall was a politician who was appointed as the Lieutenant Governor of the Northwest Territories by the Canadian government during this time. However, his arrival in the area was met with resistance from the M¿¿¿¿¿tis, who saw his appointment as a threat to their autonomy.In the book, McDougall reflects on his actions and decisions during the rebellion, including his attempts to establish a government in the region and his interactions with the M¿¿¿¿¿tis leaders, such as Louis Riel. He also addresses criticisms of his conduct, particularly his lack of understanding of the M¿¿¿¿¿tis culture and his failure to negotiate a peaceful resolution to the conflict.Overall, Red River Insurrection: William McDougall¿¿¿¿¿¿¿s Conduct Reviewed provides a unique perspective on a significant event in Canadian history and offers insight into the complexities of colonialism and Indigenous relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autorenporträt
William McDougall was an early twentieth-century psychologist who spent the first half of his career in the United Kingdom and the latter in the United States. He produced a number of influential textbooks and contributed significantly to the development of impulse theory and social psychology in the English-speaking world. McDougall was an opponent of behaviorism and was somewhat out of step with the evolution of Anglo-American psychological theory in the first half of the twentieth century; yet, his work was well known and appreciated among lay people. He was the second son of Isaac Shimwell McDougall and his wife Rebekah Smalley, and was born on June 22, 1871, in Tonge, Middleton, near Manchester. His father, one of the McDougall brothers who discovered self-raising flour, focused on his own chemical manufacturing firm. McDougall attended a number of schools, including Owens College in Manchester and St John's College, Cambridge. He studied medicine and physiology in both London and Göttingen. After teaching at University College London and Oxford, he was recruited to the William James chair of psychology at Harvard University in 1920, where he worked as a professor of psychology from 1920 until 1927.
