Forest, Lake and Prairie
Twenty Years of Frontier Life in Western Canada—1842-62
Produced by Al Haines
"Forest, Lake and Prairie" by John McDougall is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative chronicles the author's experiences as a pioneer in Western Canada during the 19th century, particularly focusing on his childhood and the challenges faced by his family as they settled in the frontier regions. It reflects on the interactions with Indigenous peoples, the natural environment, and the evolving society of the time. The opening of the book introduces McDougall's origins as a child of pioneers living near Owen Sound in Ontario. He paints a vivid picture of his early life surrounded by nature, learning from Indigenous peoples, and experiencing both joy and tragedy, including the loss of siblings. As he recounts memories of his early adventures, relationships with family, and encounters with local Indigenous tribes, readers gain insight into the harsh realities and charming moments of frontier life in the mid-19th century. The foundation of McDougall's narrative is built on his formative years, which set the stage for a deeper exploration of his life in missionary work and encounters with various communities that shaped his identity.
