About this ebook
The following book is a biography of the author's life, where he spent the majority of them in rural Upper Canada. He grew up on a farm, and his father seems to have a large influence in his life, as reflected by the following passage: "My father was one of a class of young men not uncommon in those days, who possessed energy and activity. He was bound to win. What the old people gave was cheerfully accepted, and he went to work to acquire the necessaries and comforts of life with his own hands. He chopped his way into the stubborn wood and added field to field. The battle had now been waged for seven or eight years; an addition had been made to the house; other small comforts had been added, and the nucleus of future competence fairly established."
