Susanna Moodie belongs to the origins of our literary heritage, and no library of Canadian classics would be complete without her. When Roughing It in the Bush was published in the 1850s, it created a sensation in England — not only for its “glowing narrative of personal incident and suffering “, but for Mrs. Moodie’s firm determination to puncture the illusions European land-agents were circulating about life in the colonies. Here is a frank and unvarnished account of the author’ experience trying to build a homestead in Upper Canada — the relentless toil to clear a few acres of land, the rough society and common “debauchery”, the isolation of living far from the accustomed comforts of civilization. Yet here too, leavened by Susanna Moodie’s ever-present sense of humour and eye for colourful characters, is the lively re-creation of an era that is a vital part of this country’s past.
