Publisher's Synopsis
Rich in detail, A Boy's Paradise brings to life the hard work and French Canadian culture young Wilfred Nevue experienced as a boy growing up on a farm in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It tells the story of working the farm, hunting and fishing in the surrounding countryside, his education in the town of Champion, and his relationship with his beloved grandmother. This book will interest historians, and young readers and adults fascinated by the customs and culture of the turn of the century, as well as writers looking for details for their own stories.
