Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of a young boy, Colin, who is abducted in England and brought to a remote part of Upper Canada in the 1840s. The author, who is a close friend of Colin's family, follows the boy's journey, from his abduction to his arrival in the Scotch Settlement ââ â a pioneering community established by Scottish immigrants in what is now Eastern Ontario. The book vividly depicts the life and customs of these settlers, their struggles and triumphs as they carve out a living in the untamed wilderness, their reliance on their faith, and the social and political events that shape their lives. The story is infused with a strong sense of place and time, capturing the harsh realities of frontier life while also highlighting the community spirit and resilience of the people who inhabited it. We witness the aftermath of a brutal crime that shocks the settlement, the trial of the perpetrator, and the impact of these events on the community. Ultimately, the story offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of a pioneering community, highlighting the enduring power of faith and the importance of human connection in the face of adversity. The book reminds us that even in the most challenging of circumstances, human resilience and the bonds of community can persevere.
