"Carols of Canada, Etc., Etc." by E. S. MacLeod is a collection of poems and lyrical verses written in the late 19th century. The volume reflects on themes of patriotism, the beauty of the Canadian landscape, and the spirit of its people. Through evocative imagery and rich sentiments, the author expresses a deep love for her adopted country, Canada, while paying homage to its history and cultural identity. The opening portion introduces readers to MacLeod's poetic style and the central themes of her collection. It begins with a dedication expressing gratitude to supporters of her work and conveys a sense of belonging in Canada. The prefatory remarks highlight the contrasts between her fond memories of her homeland and the socio-economic challenges faced there, ultimately promoting Canada as a refuge of hope and freedom.
