""A Lady's Life On A Farm In Manitoba"" is a memoir written by Mrs. Cecil Hall about her experiences living on a farm in Manitoba, Canada in the late 1800s. The book chronicles her journey from England to Canada, her marriage to a farmer, and her struggles to adapt to life on the prairies. Mrs. Hall writes about the challenges of farming, including harsh weather, crop failures, and the isolation of living in a remote area. She also describes the social customs and traditions of the time, including the role of women in rural communities. Throughout the book, Mrs. Hall provides vivid descriptions of the landscape, wildlife, and daily life on the farm. ""A Lady's Life On A Farm In Manitoba"" offers a unique perspective on Canadian history and the experiences of early settlers in the prairies.It is not easy to sit down and write after forty-eight hours travelling, as we have been doing since leaving Denver on Monday night at 7 o'clock; but in such scenery and air so exhilarating we do not feel as tired as we expected. You should have seen the omnibus, stage-coach, charridon, or any other name you please to give the lumbering vehicle in which we performed our last twelve hours' drive; it looked truly frightening when it drove up to Cimarron depot, one tent, last night, to pick us up, intended for twenty passengers and any amount of luggage, and swung on great straps. It was wonderfully well horsed, and we changed our teams every ten miles; but only then came at the rate of five miles an hour.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
