Excerpt from Pickanock: A Tale of Settlement Days in Older Canada

Such, as it appears to one who spent his boyhood in the region and still summers there, was the life lived by the men and women of a generation ago among the alluring hills north of Ottawa-simple, heroic, pathetic, joyous; full of struggle, no doubt, yet robbed of drudgery and made delightful by the human love, the mystic hope, and the sights, the music and the breath of nature, which come so near to being life itself.
