A romance of the convulsive period of the struggle between the French
and English for the possession of North America. The story is one of
pure love and heroic adventure, and deals with that fiery fringe of
conflict that waved between Nova Scotia and New England. The Expulsion
of the Acadians is foreshadowed in these brilliant pages, and the part
of the "Black Abbe's" intrigues in precipitating that catastrophe is
shown.
*The Heart of the Ancient Wood.* With six illustrations by James L.
