Description

When his aging father falls ill, Timothy Parsons of Boston is sent to live with his Acadian relatives in Nova Scotia. The language is new and the farm work hard, but the kind ways of the Acadians put him at ease. But trouble is on the horizon, and when the French and English go to war and Acadia is caught in the middle, Timothy must decide whether to stay with his Acadian family or return to the safety of his life in Boston."
