'Away in the Wilderness' is a classic for young readers. Adults are also bound to enjoy this novel as a semi-biographical adventure tale set in the wilderness in the latter half of the 19th Century. A delightful and humorous tale set in Canada. Boasting vibrant descriptions of Rupert's land, the rambling woods, the mosquitoes and of course the friendly and hospitable Canadian folk. It also contains a very good lesson on the best way to take revenge. A perfect fit for fans of the exciting 19th century adventure stories complete with a potent take on morality. Strongly recommended for readers who adore the 19740-1983 TV series 'Little House on the Prairie' starring Michael Landon, Karen Grassle, Melissa Gilbert and Melissa Sue Anderson. This tale is perfect for young readers approximately aged 12-16 or so.
