About This Book

Cassandra Dell Winston, the pampered daughter of a wealthy Montreal doctor, leaves her refined city life behind when she marries Dr. Samuel Smith, a dedicated young physician who feels called to practice on the rugged Canadian frontier. Ill-prepared for the harsh conditions, extreme isolation, and lack of culture in the small western settlement, Cassandra struggles deeply to adapt.
