Description
"The Clockmaker; Or, the Sayings and Doings of Samuel Slick, of Slickville" by Thomas Chandler Haliburton is a collection of satirical sketches published in 1836. Through the wry wit of Yankee character Sam Slick, Haliburton delivers sharp commentary on colonial Nova Scotia life and its relations with America and Britain. These humorous sketches mock both Canadians and Americans equally. Canada's first international bestseller, the book became wildly popular across Nova Scotia, Britain, and the United States, establishing Haliburton as a founder of North American humor.
