Title: English Bloods, In The Backwoods of Muskoka, 1878
Author: de la Fosse, FrederickPublisher: Natural Heritage / Natural History Inc., Toronto, ON, 2004
ISBN: 1-896219-96-9
De la Fosse's richly descriptive, elegantly penned and delightfully humorous memoir captures that period of life when he, and other young Englishmen of means, came to northern Muskoka in the late 1870s to acquire agricultural skills. Known locally as "English Bloods", these young lads encountered the realities of pioneer life in this beautiful but not agriculturally-friendly land. This new edition (originally published in 1930) is annotated, illustrated with archival photographs and extensively augmented with additional background on this period in Ontario's history.
