Rating: 4 out of 5

This fact-based fiction describes the almost forced emigration in the early 1800s of Scottish islanders to the then untamed Canadian territories of New Scotland (Nova Scotia) and Hudson Bay. Those who know little of Canada and it's social history should find this account of interest.  The story follows the inter-weaving stories, trials and tribulations of families as they emigrate to New Scotland, settle, break up, regroup and return. It is a multiple love story with lots of adventure. An easy read ... and look forward to the next of the trilogy.
