''The Redfords: An Emigrant Story'' is a novel written by Mrs. George Cupples and published in 1886. The book tells the story of a Scottish family, the Redfords, who emigrate to Canada in search of a better life. The family consists of the parents, John and Mary, and their three children, Tom, Maggie, and Baby. The family faces many challenges as they adjust to their new life in Canada, including harsh weather, difficult living conditions, and the struggle to find work. The story follows the family’s experiences as they settle in a small town and make new friends, including a kind-hearted doctor and his wife. The Redfords also encounter some less friendly characters, such as a cruel landlord who tries to take advantage of their situation. Along the way, the family learns valuable lessons about perseverance, hard work, and the importance of family. The book is a heartwarming tale of the immigrant experience and the struggles and triumphs of a family trying to make a new life in a new land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
