Iain of New Scotland

Iain of New Scotland is a historical fiction novel intended for Grades 5 - 8 but is suitable for all readers who enjoy early Canadian history. Diana Galbadon, author of the Outlander series has written the foreword.

Book Description: Thirteen-year old Iain Robertson is homesick for the Highlands of Scotland. It's 1773, and he has just arrived in Nova Scotia with his parents and little sister after a long, disastrous, Atlantic voyage on the ship 'Hector". They wanted a new life in New Scotland, but the land agent lied to them. With no money, no food, no shelter, no tools and winter fast approaching, how will they survive?
