Download or read book The Acadians of Nova Scotia written by Sally Ross and published by Nimbus Publishing (CN). This book was released on 1992 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first work devoted exclusively to Acadians in Nova Scotia, this book presents a thorough study of Acadian history from the earliest days of French settlement to present-day Acadian communities. Authors Sally Ross and Alphonse Deveau draw on original seventeenth-century texts, as well as up-to-date sources. They examine the history of the Expulsion--the Grand Dérangement--that began in 1755, and trace the return of the Acadians and their resettlement in seven areas of the province. The authors highlight the distinct features that have developed within these different regions of Nova Scotia and discuss the choices and challenges faced by Acadians today: the linguistic assimilation and preservation of a distinct culture against pressures from the mainstream culture. Acadians of Nova Scotia won the 1993 Dartmouth Book Award for non-fiction and the 1993 Evelyn Richardson Memorial Literary Prize for non-fiction.

Book excerpt: 'The Rivals of Acadia' is an adventure-drama novel penned by H. V. Cheney. The story begins on a bright summer day in 1643, where a light pleasure-boat is sailing across the harbor of Boston with a group of people on board. A group of friends are watching them depart but one person, named Arthur Stanhope, is not paying attention to the scene. Suddenly a French ship appears and the people on the shore become alarmed. The French ship is armed and the people on the pleasure-boat, mostly women and children, are terrified. The pleasure-boat turns and tries to flee but the French ship pursues them.

Book excerpt: Winner, Evelyn Richardson Award for Non-Fiction and Democracy 250 Atlantic Book Award for Historical Writing Finalist, Dartmouth Book Award for Non-Fiction, and the Margaret and John Savage Award for Best First Book (Non-fiction) A Hill Times' 100 Best Books in 2020 Selection On Canada's History Bestseller List Growing up on the south shore of Nova Scotia, Tyler LeBlanc wasn't fully aware of his family's Acadian roots -- until a chance encounter with an Acadian historian prompted him to delve into his family history. LeBlanc's discovery that he could trace his family all the way to the time of the Acadian Expulsion and beyond forms the basis of this compelling account of Le Grand Dérangement. Piecing together his family history through archival documents, Tyler LeBlanc tells the story of Joseph LeBlanc (his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather), Joseph's ten siblings, and their families. With descendants scattered across modern-day Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, the LeBlancs provide a window into the diverse fates that awaited the Acadians when they were expelled from their homeland. Some escaped the deportation and were able to retreat into the wilderness. Others found their way back to Acadie. But many were exiled to Britain, France, or the future United States, where they faced suspicion and prejudice and struggled to settle into new lives. A unique biographical approach to the history of the Expulsion, Acadian Driftwood is a vivid insight into one family's experience of this traumatic event.

Download or read book Acadia written by Alfred Silver and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three centuries ago on the coast of Nova Scotia intrepid Frenchmen built a wealthy fur-trading colony they called Acadia. On one side of the beautiful Baye Franoise reigned aristocratic Sicur d'Aulnay. On the other, the rebel Charles La Tour and his wife, a retired actress, held sway. There was fierce enmity between them, and in France, wily old Cardinal Richelieu was pleased that it should be so. But to the Acadians the escalating violence brought only fear and suffering. And before long, La Tour and d'Aulnay *and everyone they each held dear *were to be trapped in the machinery of hatred they had set in motion. . . . ACADIA is the thrilling true story of real men and women *ancestors of the Louisiana Cajuns *who gambled on a dream and an unforeseeable destiny. It is distinguished historical novelist Alfred Silver's finest work.

Download or read book Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors written by Shane K. Bernard and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-02-11 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors: A Young Reader's History traces the four-hundred-year history of this distinct American ethnic group. While written in a format comprehensible to junior-high and high-school students, it will prove appealing and informative as well to adult readers seeking a one-volume exploration of these remarkable people and their predecessors. The narrative follows the Cajuns' early ancestors, the Acadians, from seventeenth-century France to Nova Scotia, where they flourished until British soldiers expelled them in a tragic event called Le Grand Dérangement (The Great Upheaval)—an episode regarded by many historians as an instance of ethnic cleansing or genocide. Up to one-half of the Acadian population died from disease, starvation, exposure, or outright violence in the expulsion. Nearly three thousand survivors journeyed through the thirteen American colonies to Spanish-controlled Louisiana. There they resettled, intermarried with members of the local population, and evolved into the Cajun people, who today number over a half-million. Since their arrival in Louisiana, the Cajuns have developed an unmistakable identity and a strong sense of ethnic pride. In recent decades they have contributed their exotic cuisine and accordion-and-fiddle dance music to American popular culture. Cajuns and Their Acadian Ancestors: A Young Reader's History includes numerous images and over a dozen sidebars on topics ranging from Cajun music to Mardi Gras.
