		After this, Howe was to lead the province into the great political reforms that swept Britain during the first fifty years of the 19th century: the aristocracy was out of power and the people claimed it for themselves through their elected representatives.
		Howe in his more mature years, as one of the chief political leaders of Nova Scotia, involved himself in the great political fights that surrounded the founding of Canada as a nation, which was to be a confederation of the former English colonies.

		Howe’s purpose in writing Acadia is to show his countrymen, particularly those in positions of authority, the errors which had led to the corruption and bloodshed of the past, thus enabling them to avoid future conflicts.
		While Howe is, at this point, weighing the relative merits of idealized domesticity as opposed to those of the wandering, adventurous lifestyle, the scene also brings to mind the tale of the prodigal son (Luke 15.

		Howe's patriotic feeling for anything British is at least partially responsible for the conventionalized treatment of subject matter that expressed itself in a stylized diction often glaringly inappropriate to the North American context.
		Howe's rendering of the settlers' lifestyle is as filled with interesting detail and as flawed in style as his picture of Indian life discussed earlier.
		Howe establishes the love between family members as father is torn apart from wife and child in such a way that the reader cannot help but recall the family portrait of the British settlers and the more violent separation of mother and child in the Micmac attack.
