Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; light crease to bottom front inside corner; otherwise very minimal wear; appears unread; The prize-winning entry in a national competition for distinctively Canadian fiction, Winona was serialized in a Montreal story paper in 1873. The novel focuses on the lives of two foster sisters raised in the northern Ontario wilderness: Androsia Howard, daughter of a retired military officer, and Winona, the daughter of a Huron chief.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. 437 pages. dj chipped & worn, name ffep, spine fadedThough her life was largely circumscribed by domesticity and poverty both in England and in Canada, Catharine Parr Traill's interests, experiences, and conta cts were broad and various. Her contribution to our knowledge of nineteenth-cent ury Canadian life from a literary, historical, social, and scientific perspectiv es was significant.Chosen from her nearly 500 extant letters, the 136 pre sented here vividly reflect typical aspects of social and family life, attachmen ts to the Old World, health and medical conditions, travel, religious faith and practice, the stresses of settlement in Upper Canada in the 1830s, and the dispe rsal of families with the opening up of the Canadian and the American West.Spanning seventy-two years, the letters are presented in three sections, each prefaced by an introductory essay. The first, 'The Changes and the Chances of a Settler's Life' (1827-59), traces Trail's story from her emergence as one of the literary Strickland sisters in England through the difficult, poverty-stricken years of settlement and family raising in Canada to her husband's death. The sec ond, 'The Poor Country Mouse' (1860-84), reveals her quiet life at Westove, her devotion to family and friends, and the time she spent writing botanical essays and seeking a publisher for them. A trip to Ottawa in 1884 awakened her to a rec ognition of the literary stature she had earned. The third section, 'The Sight o f Green Things Is Life to Me' (1885-99), begins with the publication of her Stud ies of Plant Life in Canada and sheds light on the public recognition she receiv ed, her continuing literary productivity, and the strengthening of her role as m atriarch of the Strickland family in Canada. It closes with her death on 29 Augu.…
