Our Little Canadian Cousin by Elizabeth Roberts MacDonald (1864 - 1922)

In "Our Little Canadian Cousin," the author's intention is to tell, in a general way and in one defined local setting, the story of Canadian home life in the late 19th century. To Canadians, home life means not merely sitting at a huge fire-place, or brewing and baking in a wide country kitchen, or dancing of an evening, or teaching, or sewing ; but it means the great outdoor life — sleighing, skating, snow-shoeing, hunting, canoeing, and, above all, "camping out " — the joys that belong to a vast, uncrowded country, where there is "room to play." (Summary from the Author's foreword)
