The Crown Ward V1 is a novel by Archibald Boyd that tells the story of a young girl named Mary, who is taken away from her parents and placed in the care of the government as a ''crown ward.'' The novel explores the challenges and struggles that Mary faces as she tries to navigate her new life without her family. Along the way, she meets a cast of characters who help her cope with her situation, including a kind-hearted doctor, a supportive teacher, and a group of other children in similar circumstances. The story is set in Canada in the early 20th century and offers a glimpse into the country’s history of child welfare and institutional care. Overall, The Crown Ward V1 is a moving and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of family, identity, and resilience in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
