Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is this book unique? Font adjustments & biography included Unabridged (100% Original content) Illustrated About The Backwoods Of Canada by Catharine Parr Traill The toils, troubles, and satisfactions of pioneer life are recorded with charm and vivacity in this portrayal of pioneer life by Catharine Parr Traill, who, like her sister Susanna Moodie, left the comforts of genteel English society for the rigours of a new, young land. These are the letters of a British Army Officer's wife writing back to her family in England as she begins her new life in the untouched Backwoods of Canada in 1832. They arrive on their newly purchased plot of land at 10pm at night, the wagon driver throws their belongings from his wagon and drives off. She touches on many points of important history, including describing the Chippewa and Otonabee people she meets and trades with regularly. She talks about the issues unique to being the first family to settle in an area, and her bravery and love of learning about her new home are obvious. Catherine Parr Strickland was an experienced writer who first work was published in 1818; her writing helped to support herself and her family financially after her father's death. She married half-pay Lieutenant Thomas Traill and emigrated to Upper Canada in 1832 to homestead in the bush.

Alma was born in 1910 from humble beginnings in rural Davidson County, NC and raised one of nine children. Now, she shares with us in detail what rural life was like in backwoods North Carolina through vivid descriptions of daily customs, folklores and hardships. At age twelve Alma's family moved from the backwoods to Lexington. There, Alma's life changed dramatically when in her late teens she married and became the mother of eleven children. Resilience is the word that comes to mind when describing her character. In childhood, Alma's parent's instilled in her the value of family, church and community. During the chaotic years of raising her family she never forgot her upbringing. She worked hard; always putting her family first. In times of personal need, she sought strength from the church. Alma tells her story with a warmth and enthusiasm that will leave you laughing at times and at other times holding a tissue to your eyes.

Book excerpt: Catharine Parr Traill and Susanna Moodie are icons of the Canadian imagination. Yet most of what we know of these two English gentlewomen who spent their adult lives struggling in Britain’s harsh and vigorous colony comes from their own self-consciously crafted writings and from other writers’ sometimes fanciful depictions of them. But what were the women behind the authorial voices really like? In Sisters in the Wilderness, award-winning author Charlotte Gray breathes life into two remarkable and fascinating characters and brings us a vivid picture of life in the backwoods of Upper Canada.

She described her new life in Canada in letters and journals, and collected these into The Backwoods of Canada (1836), which continues to be read as an important source of information about early Canada.

Thomas Traill, a retired offier who fought in the Napoleonic Wars. The Traills decided to emigrate to Canada soon after their marriage in 1832, and they sailed aboard the brig "Laurel" where Mrs. Traill wrote her first letter, dated July 18, 1832. Her letters go on to describe the arduous journey to their new home in Peterborough, Upper Canada, and her new life in the backwoods, living in a log house. She describes the relationships among Canadians, Americans, and Native Americans, flora and fauna and climate of the area, dress, local roads, and other aspects of life in early Canada. The final letter is dated May 1, 1835 in Douro. Her Appendix A includes recipes and notes on maple sugaring, vinegar, salt-rising, soft soap, candles, and pickling. Appendix B provides emigration statistics and advice to those who wish to emigrate to Canada about land companies, land purchases, transfer of capital, and Canadian currency.
