Bride of New France

“a wholly original example of social history at its best” – John Barber, The Globe and Mail

“a fully imagined but deeply grounded novel” – John Barber, The Globe and Mail

“Bride of New France will not silence critics of the new social history, nor is it meant to. But if they do want to bring the past alive for a new generation, as they typically claim, they could never find a text more likely to engage the minds and imaginations of young people, especially girls, who have grown immune to the conventional narratives.” – John Barber, The Globe and Mail

“A moody, beautiful piece of historical fiction.” – Dana Medoro, Winnipeg Free Press

“A haunting story of a courageous young woman.” – Kathleen Grissom, author of the bestselling The Kitchen House
