In 1697, Quebec is an island of French civilization perched on a bare gray rock amid a wilderness of trackless forests. For many of its settlers, Quebec is a place of exile, so remote that an entire winter passes without a word from home. But to twelve-year-old C\u00e9cile Auclair, the rock\u00a0is<\/i> home, where even the formidable Governor Frontenac entertains children in his palace and beavers lie beside the lambs in a Christmas creche. As Cather follows this devout and resourceful child over the course of a year, she re-creates the continent as it must have appeared to its first European inhabitants. And she gives us a spellbinding work of historical fiction in which great events occur first as rumors and\u00a0then as legends\u2014and in which even the most intimate domestic scenes are suffused with a sense of wonder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
