BOOK - Across the Waters: Ontario Immigrants' Experiences, 1820-1850
by: Frances Hoffman & Ryan Taylor
Published by Global Heritage Press

One of the reasons for studing history or doing genealogy is to see how the people in a different time lived. The most dramatic experience of early immigrants was crossing ocean, but how much do we know about what it was like? It would be terrific to hear actual emigrants describe the trip.

Across the Waters: Ontario Immigrants' Experiences, 1820-1850, by Frances Hoffman and Ryan Taylor gathers together selections from firsthand accounts of more than 150 individual immigrants so that today's readers can discover what it meant to be a pioneer in Upper Canada (Ontario). From the day they decided to strike off across the Atlantic to the first harvest in their own clearing, the settlers will tell you about the seasickness, the quarantine station, the mosquitoes--the fish you could scoop out of streams with your bare hands, the pride of owning your own land and the joys of helping one another build a house.
