"Eric Ross uses his fictional character, Ian Alexander Bell Robertson, to recount the story of life in the Canadas during 1841. ... Throughout the book, Ross has interspersed snippets of information and illustrations to supplement Robertson's writings. Scrupulously researched and easily accessible, Full of Hope and Promise will interest anyone wishing to know more about everyday life in Upper and Lower Canada at the time of the 1841 Union."--Jacket.
