	H-Net Review: Beatrice Craig on Quelques Arpents d'Amerique: Population, Economie, Famille au Saguenay, 1838-1971
		Bouchard, this "reproduction a l'identique" was the overriding goal pursued by Saguenay farmers, the one to which they subordinated all their activities: each household wanted to produce as many clones of itself as possible.
		The existing literature suggests that the pattern of family reproduction uncovered in the Saguenay was not unique to this region, and that it could be found, in whole or in part, in most regions of North America during the settlement phase.
		Finally, the placing of the Saguenay in a North American, as opposed to a national context, is definitely a fruitful strategy: Quebeckers, Ontarians, Maritimers, New Englanders and other Northeasterners more often than not adopted the same strategies when confronted with the same physical, human or economic environment.

	Geomorphic effects and impacts from July 1996 severe flooding in the Saguenay area, Quebec
		The Saguenay floods caused severe inundation and extensive erosion along some river reaches resulting in major channel widening and bank erosion, breaching of dams and dykes, and damage to bridges and roads.
		Flooding in the Saguenay area was caused by a major storm system that stalled over the mouth of the St. Lawrence River between July 18-21, 1996, and which dropped record amounts of rainfall.
		The intense rainfall from the July 18-21 storm, in combination with the near-saturated ground conditions produced by the antecedent July rainfall and the generally thin, discontinuous overburden blanketing the bedrock of the Laurentian Highlands produced widespread flooding throughout the northshore of the St. Lawrence River southern Quebec.

	Saguenay Fire
		The spring of 1870 came so early to the Saguenay region and was so dry that the farmers of this region in northeastern Québec hurriedly ploughed their fields so that sowing could be finished by early May.

		Despite the terrible toll exacted from the land and the people who worked it, the stricken families of the Saguenay stayed, forging a reputation as a remarkably tough and resilient people.
		After larger, more intense fires, such as the Saguenay blaze of 1870 and those that ravaged Québec's North Shore in 1991, more than one hundred years may be needed for the humus to regenerate.
