Présentation de l'éditeur
Maid of the North was ready for sea. Only the touch of the engineer was wanting to send her, once again, on a homeward voyage to the St. Lawrence. Meanwhile, in solemn undertones, she was breathing forth her superabundant steam. Behind the wharf lay the city of Boston. A score of passengers, together with fiiends who had come aboard to see them off, were scattered about the little steamer. A mong them, on the after deck, indifferent to the hot June sun, moved a gentleman of aristocratic mien. His raiment was above reproach. He gave the impression of being a distinguished person. But this impression was delusive, his distinction being merely social.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. The author of this early 20th-century marine adventure follows Patrick Boyd, affectionately known as 'Pats,' an expatriate with a mysterious past, on his journey back to his Canadian home. Pats's return is not a happy one, for he has long been estranged from his family and his arrival stirs up old wounds. Despite his family's coldness, Pats befriends an orphaned heiress, Elinor Marshall, whose wealth and budding spirituality make her a target for a predatory Catholic priest seeking to induct her into a convent. As a man of science and reason, Pats takes an instant dislike to the priest and his machinations. He believes that Elinor's intellect and compassion should not be wasted on blind faith and superstition. Despite initial resistance from Elinor, who views him as an unprincipled heretic, Pats attempts to win her over to his way of thinking, leading to heated debates and moments of unexpected tenderness. This book is not only a gripping adventure with vivid descriptions of sea voyages and storms but also a fascinating meditation on the tension between faith and reason, and the power of love to overcome prejudice. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
