"Life in Canada" by Thomas Conant is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work explores the history and customs of Canada, particularly focusing on the author's ancestors, beginning with his great-grandfather, Roger Conant, who immigrated to Upper Canada as a United Empire Loyalist. The book is likely to appeal to those interested in Canadian history, particularly the experiences of early settlers and their contributions to the development of the region. At the start of the narrative, Thomas Conant introduces his ancestor Roger, detailing his background in Massachusetts and the events leading up to his emigration to Canada in 1792. The text outlines Roger's experiences in the early days of settlement, including his life as a fur trader and farmer, amidst the challenges posed by a largely undeveloped land. The author emphasizes Roger's contributions, character, and the hardships faced by the early settlers, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the significance of these experiences in shaping Canada's history and identity.
