Description

[6], 260 pages. "Tells the story of an adventure in homesteading on the prairies of Alberta [near Talbot, Alberta] from 1906 to 1912. Author was the mother of a family of five. During her first winter she kept an almost daily record of events. In 1915, three years after leaving, she completed the story for her children, with no thought that it would ever by published. Offers a vivid picture of pioneer life, painted by one who actually lived through the experiences described. Tells of years of hardship and privation, years of bitter struggle, years of loneliness and frustration and disappointment, and yet, years that were rewarding." - Foreword. Prior owner's name and date atop title page, otherwise contents clean and unmarked. Binding intact. Above-average wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A sound copy of this fascinating and informative Canadian prairie pioneering chronicle. Strathern 3504. Book
