Edition DescriptionReprint
SynopsisAutobiographical account of a young couple's adventures homesteading in the Canadian wilderness. Isabel Edwards was in her early twenties when she and her husband Earle began homesteading in British Columbia's remote Bella Coola Valley. What was to be one winter spent in the Northern coastal mountains has become almost fifty years. Witty, whimsical, this is a firsthand account of homesteading in the remote Bella Coola Valley. For a woman in a world of men, isolation had a very special meaning. She coped - lovingly, laughingly - and regales the reader with her memories.

  • Interesting history, no real plot.

    Interesting book on the history of a family in the interior of British Columbia. No real plot to the book, but just a journal of the things that happened to this couple throughout the years. It is more a collection of stories about incidents in their lives.

  • The story is pure gold. Buy it!

    Witty, whimsical first-hand account of homesteading the remote wilderness of British Columbia in the early 1900s. Written by a woman in a man’s world, she copes lovingly and laughingly, and captures the reader with her factual and exciting memories. Truly entertaining and one of my favorite reads!
