The story follows the Campbell family as they emigrate from England to Canada in the 1790s to seek a better life amidst the challenges of a newly colonized land that is still rife with dangers from wild animals and indigenous peoples. The narrative centers on Mr. Campbell, a prosperous surgeon, and his family, detailing their motivations for leaving England and the trials they anticipate in their new home. The opening portion introduces the Campbell family and their situation after a sudden change in fortune when Mr. Campbell inherits a significant estate. Following the death of his sister and her husband, he is thrown into the role of guardian to his two young nieces, amidst the joy and turmoil of newfound wealth, as well as the looming threat of losing it due to a legal claim. With the prospect of financial ruin growing, coupled with their wish for adventure and opportunity, the family decides to emigrate to Canada. The narrative explores their emotional journey while setting the stage for their upcoming experiences in the wilds of a largely uncharted territory. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
