by Felix Voorhies (Author)
The story of old Acadia is reborn!
On a cold winter night, an old woman gathers her grandchildren at her feet and recounts the story of the Acadia she once knew. From the stirring simplicity of the Acadians' daily community to their exile from the only home they'd ever known, this spellbinding and deeply personal tale grants new life to a rich culture that exists only in the faintest of memories. Including the legendary story of Evangeline, an orphan who was torn from her fiancé and lived the rest of her life in grief, Felix Voorhies (1839-1919) shares his own grandmother's account of war, pilgrimage, sacrifice, and the Acadian spirit.
Back Jacket
Through war, exile, peril, and heartbreak, the spirit of the Acadians never faltered as they struggled to maintain lives of simplicity and faith. Told with rich emotion, Acadian Reminiscences is more than a history of old Acadia--it is the Voorhies family's personal journey to remember the sacrifices and triumphs of their people.
