Set in Quebec City during the pivotal decade between Wolfe's victory and the American War of Independence, this novel unfolds as a series of letters, providing a detailed portrayal of early colonial life. It explores themes of cultural confrontation, gender roles, and the social dynamics among English-speaking settlers, Québécois, and Native peoples. Through the perspectives of characters like Colonel William Fermor and Arabella Fermor, the narrative serves as both a love story and a travelogue, offering insights into the landscape, customs, and daily life of 18th-century Canada.
