Binding: Trade Pap
Providence, the first in the McBride Chronicles series,
describes the sweeping story of two parallel lives - Jane
Hopkins, an orphaned young girl from England and Gideon McBride,
the son of a poor fisherman from Scotland - who separately travel
to the New World in search of a better life. Their individual
stories contain hardship, adventure, intrigue, deception and lies
but, above all, a great love as they each find their way to
survive in an unforgiving world - Jane through music and a
desperate need for the foundations of a happy family life, and
Gideon through a desire to escape from a lifestyle he was
expected to embrace.
The beginning of the McBride family dynasty starts in
Victoria, British Columbia's capital city, and is set against a
backdrop of the Province's vivid history - from the days of the
first gold rush along the mighty Fraser River, the incorporation
of Victoria as a city, and a smallpox epidemic that decimated the
Indigenous population - to B.C. joining confederation in 1871.
This book describes the moral as well as the corrupt days of
early colonization.
