Table of contents: title: Catharine Parr Traill followed her sister Susanna Moodie from a genteel English life to The Backwoods of Canada. Treasured by 19th-century readers as a comprehensive source of practical information, this is a clear account of her trip to Canada and the forging of a new home. Her own trials and tribulations in the bush country near Peterborough, Ontario are recounted here, resulting in a vivid portrait of Canadian pioneer life in the late 1800s.
