The Canadian Settlers Guide - Traill, Catharine Parr

Clean, tight, unmarked; lightly age tanned; spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; Originally published in 1855, Catharine Parr Traill's classic with its admirable recipes, candid advice, and astute observations about local food sourcing, offers an intimate glimpse into the daily domestic and seasonal routines of settler life. Catharine Parr Traill was a young bride when she exchanged the comforts of upper-class English society for the rigours of pioneer existence. and she took the taming of the Canadian bush into her stride as gracefully as she had once entertained the vicar at tea. Her diverting and informative Guide remains as fascinating today as when it was first written.
