LOST IN THE BACKWOODS.

A TALE OF THE CANADIAN FOREST.




BY MRS. TRAILL





Preface


The interesting tale contained in this volume of romantic adventure in
the forests of Canada, was much appreciated and enjoyed by a large circle
of young readers when first published, under the title of "The Canadian
Crusoes." After being many years out of print, it will now, we hope and
believe, with a new and more descriptive title, prove equally attractive
to our young friends of the present time.

EDINBURGH, 1882.
