In Times Like These is a novel written by Nellie L. McClung in 1915. The story is set in a small town in Western Canada during the early 1900s. The book follows the lives of several characters, including a young schoolteacher named Helen, who is determined to change the traditional attitudes of the town towards women. Helen is a strong-willed and independent woman who challenges the status quo of the time. Her efforts to bring change to the town are met with resistance and criticism from some of the residents. However, she is able to rally support from other like-minded individuals, including some of her students and a local newspaper editor. The novel also explores themes of love, family, and community. Helen falls in love with a local farmer named Jim, but their relationship is complicated by the social expectations of the time. The book also delves into the lives of other characters in the town, including a struggling family and an alcoholic husband. In Times Like These is a powerful and inspiring novel that highlights the struggles of women in early 20th century Canada. It is a testament to the strength and resilience of individuals who fight for change and the importance of community support.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
