She describes a life of backbreaking labour, poverty, and hardship on a pioneer farm in the colonial wilderness. Her sharp observations, satirical character sketches, and moments of despair and terror were a startling contrast to the widely circulated optimistic portrayals of life in British North America, written to entice readers across the Atlantic. A frank and fascinating account of how one woman coped, not only with a new world, but with a new self, this unabridged text continues to justify the international sensation it caused when it was first published in 1852. \u003cb\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susanna Moodie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0735252793\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780735252790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Emblem Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 608\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.10w x 1.40d","brand":"Susanna Moodie","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981135184127,"sku":"9780735252790","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1dfe1e41-0976-4e93-8e66-d111f85cb0e4.jpg?v=1683253850","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/roughing-it-in-the-bush-susanna-moodie-9780735252790","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
