"History of Prince Edward Island" by Duncan Campbell is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the history of Prince Edward Island, starting from its early British possession up until its unified administration with other provinces in British North America. The author aims to provide an accurate and impartial narrative about the island's key events, social issues, and governance throughout the centuries. The opening of the book presents a detailed preface where Campbell outlines his methodology for collecting information, including examining both published works and original, unpublished documents. He highlights the importance of addressing the "Land Question," which analyzes the distribution of land grants and the fulfilling of settlement terms by proprietors. The initial chapters introduce the geographical significance of Prince Edward Island and its early history, including the cession of the island from France to Britain and Captain Samuel Holland's survey, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of its socio-political landscape and development as a colony.
