Meer over het boek

An influential English-Canadian author and naturalist, Catharine Parr Traill chronicled her experiences in early Canada, particularly in Ontario. Starting her writing career with children's books, she later compiled her letters and journals into "The Backwoods of Canada," a significant resource on the period. Traill dedicated her later years to documenting the natural environment, publishing works like "Canadian Wild Flowers" and "Studies of Plant Life in Canada." Her legacy endures through her detailed observations and contributions to Canadian literature and natural history.
