Description
Canadian Crusoes is a classic adventure novel written by Catherine Parr Traill. The book tells the story of two siblings, Edward and Elizabeth, who are shipwrecked on a deserted island off the coast of Canada. The siblings must learn to survive in their new environment, facing challenges such as finding food, building shelter, and avoiding dangerous animals.As they adapt to their new way of life, Edward and Elizabeth discover the natural beauty of the island and learn to appreciate the simple pleasures of life. They also encounter a Native American tribe and develop a friendship with them, learning about their culture and way of life.The book is a captivating tale of survival and adventure, written in Traill's engaging and descriptive style. It provides a fascinating glimpse into life in Canada during the 19th century, as well as important lessons about resilience, perseverance, and the beauty of nature. Canadian Crusoes is a must-read for anyone who loves adventure and exploration.The Indians offered the first of the birds as an oblation to the Great Spirit, as a grateful acknowledgment of his bounty in having allowed them to gather food thus plentifully for their families; sometimes distant tribes with whom they were on terms of friendship were invited to share the sport and partake of the spoils. Indiana could not understand why Hector did not follow the custom of her Indian fathers, and offer the first duck or the best fish to propitiate the Great Spirit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
