Memories of the Prairie and Other Stories: A McLeod Family Memoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950989218)

"That was the beginning of my love affair with the English language." Janet McLeod

What do we know about our forebearers? Today, when so many are involved in genealogy, what do we really learn from the long line of begats? Who were these people? What stories could they tell?

Our mother had stories about her early life on the prairie, which she wrote in the last years of her life. We want to share those stories with you.

Janet Edith Rose Mary Anne Ross McLeod was a child of the prairie. How did she come to be born there? What was her life like? These sweet sometimes poignant stories reveal to us the joys and hardships of living on the prairie and show how the families of Janet Ross and Malcolm McLeod lived on the cold, windswept prairie of the Northwest Territories, Canada.
