Canadian Crusoes is a classic children's adventure novel written by Catherine Parr Traill. The story follows the adventures of two siblings, Edward and Elizabeth, who are shipwrecked on a deserted island off the coast of Newfoundland. The siblings must learn to survive on their own, hunting and fishing for food, building shelter, and exploring the island. Along the way, they encounter various challenges and dangers, including wild animals, harsh weather, and illness. Despite these obstacles, they persevere and develop a deep appreciation for the natural world. The book is a timeless tale of resilience, resourcefulness, and the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity. It is a must-read for anyone who loves adventure stories and tales of survival in the wilderness.The Indians offered the first of the birds as an oblation to the Great Spirit, as a grateful acknowledgment of his bounty in having allowed them to gather food thus plentifully for their families; sometimes distant tribes with whom they were on terms of friendship were invited to share the sport and partake of the spoils. Indiana could not understand why Hector did not follow the custom of her Indian fathers, and offer the first duck or the best fish to propitiate the Great Spirit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
