Notes


First issued in 1915, Mitchell’s account records her travels from Britain through the young prairie communities of Saskatchewan and Alberta. Writing from the perspective of an Oxford-educated visitor, she captures early impressions of settlement life on the eve of the First World War. Long regarded as one of the most perceptive contemporary outsider views of Western Canada.

A selection from the Western Producer Prairie Book SPECTRA SERIES - "reprints of classic publications representing the colour of western Canadian history in all its variety".
