A classic collection of simple poems, songs, and odes that recall childhood days, family pride, and formative moments in a young nation.
This edition gathers lyrical pieces that blend personal reflection with larger themes of loyalty, courage, and hope, offering a window into 19th‑century Canadian and British sensibilities.
In these pages, the author speaks with humility about poetry as an art and a life, while weaving vivid scenes of landscapes, memory, and the pull of duty. Readers will encounter spirited tributes, intimate vignettes, and dramatic passages that celebrate heritage, love, and the enduring spirit of youth.
- Experiencing lyrical landscapes and turn-of-the-century sentiment through accessible verse.
- Exploring themes of patriotism, heart‑facing choices, and personal integrity.
- Noting the contrast between public glory and private devotion, love and loss.
- Encountering a mix of medley poems and narrative encounters that move between dream and history.
Ideal for readers who enjoy historical poetry, reflective verse, and a window into the moral and emotional world of early Canadian literature.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
