Description
hrough the eyes of two recent immigrants we see a strange new world: rural Canada in the 1950s. We follow Gerard and Jane from their arrival on the docks of halifax through months of islolation, bewilderment and terror.
Without money and speaking no English, the couple faced many heart-breaking problems, ranging from
unscrupulous emploers to relenting weather. At one point, their only friends were a horse and a Belgian priest.
This is a book you can't put down. you read on with rising emotions, feeling and caring for the people involved,
and eager to learn what further happens to them.
