Ol' Tom Stories – An Eastern Townships Life
John Mackley
$--.--
Ol’Tom, a second-generation Scottish-Canadian and his extended family live a danger-filled existence in the early 1900s in the Eastern Townships of Quebec. This collection of spellbinding stories brings alive bygone times in the Township of Bury.
Life-or-death struggles are leavened with lighthearted fun and fascinating portrayals of nature, old-fashioned machinery, and "making do" by a resourceful farming family of modest means.
As Ol' Tom tells his tales, he reveals the secrets, hazards and bounties of his life story.
