Scots and other immigrants are exploring and settling this area of what will become Ontario.The adventure in this rugged and beautiful country begins with surviving the many battles with nature. Aboriginal peoples from many tribes are on the move through this area and are engaged with the newcomers. The people carving out a place for the future might be wonderful or wicked. There is chaos and opportunity, friendship and danger.The United States has just won its revolutionary war against Great Britain. America is looking north and the War of 1812 is coming.For Hector MacLeod, he must survive the challenges of an unforgiving wilderness of water and woods as he seeks to find and face his adversary.This book was originally written in 1928. The tale is told with the care of a historian and a minister's love of story. Reverend Hugh Cowan was also a historian and author of several books.
