The Settlers in Canada
"The Settlers in Canada" by Frederick Marryat is a children's novel published in 1844. When the Campbell family loses their English estate to a legal claimant, they emigrate to the wilderness of Upper Canada in the 1790s with almost nothing. Settling near Lake Ontario, they face harsh weather, wild animals, and hostile natives as they struggle to build a new life. With help from an eccentric hunter and their own determination, the family must learn to survive in an unforgiving frontier.
