Reviews
He is every bit as bad as Dickens
A swooping saga, filled with peaks and troughs, but most memorable in the evocation of immigrant life in Western Canada
Macdonald is adept at handling large and unwieldy casts spanning eras and changing times and manners...great natural and varied backgrounds, well-detailed history, nostalgic local color...engrossing
A family saga of the first rank
