Forest and Other Gleanings

The Fugitive Writings of Catharine Parr Traill

by Catherine Parr Traill, edited by Michael Peterman & Carl Ballstadt

tagged: canadian
Description

Forest and other Gleanings reclaims for the contemporary reader a number of stories and sketches written by Catharine Parr Traill after her emigration to Canada in 1832. While most pieces collected here appeared in magazines in Britain, the United States, and Canada, a few have been drawn from archival holdings and make their first appearance here. This collection seeks, as it were, to complete her aspirations and to offer readers interested in Traill and 19th-century Upper Canada a "gleaning" of her better sketches and stories.
