Excerpt from Sketches in Canada: And Rambles Among the Red Men

Nobody reads prefaces on a Railway journey. The leaves are turned over for something to arrest attention, or to dissipate weariness, or to "fleet the time," which even at railway speed moves slowly compared to the march of ideas. It is, however, necessary to state in few words that these pages are a reprint of the most amusing and interesting chapters of the "Winter Studies And Summer Rambles In CANADA," - first published in 1838, in three octavo volumes, favourably received at the time and now out of print. The Authoress in the original preface to the work represents herself as thrown into scenes and regions hitherto unsubscribed by any traveller (for the northern shores of Lake Huron are almost new ground), and into relations with the Indian tribes such as few European women of refined and civilised habits have ever risked, and none have recorded; and the adventures and sketches of character and scenery among the Red-skins, still retain that freshness which belongs only to what is genuine. All that was of a merely transient or merely personal nature, or obsolete in politics or criticism, has been omitted.

The rest, the book must say for itself.

Paperback. Condici�n: New. Print on Demand. This book is an illuminating collection of chapters from the author's travels through Canada in the 1830s. Exploring themes of art, music, and morality, it provides a fascinating glimpse into the socio-cultural landscapes of North America in the 19th century. The author's vivid descriptions of cities and the untamed wilderness, along with perceptive reflections on human nature, make for a compelling narrative. Particularly noteworthy are the author's unique insights and encounters with Native American tribes and her observations on the impact of European settlers on their traditional way of life. This book will appeal to a wide range of readers interested in travel, history, art, music, and the interconnections between cultures. It offers not only an intriguing exploration of a specific time and place but also a broader examination of human nature and the search for meaning in different contexts.
