by Margaret A. Westlie (Author)
It was a different time.
A time when you were in a one-room schoolhouse, daydreaming with friends, helping on the farm, being a good sister and simply living as a normal 15 year old girl in rural Prince Edward Island. Yet when the man of the house suddenly passes, and within no time another gentleman is in his place, everything changes. Including arriving home where you're told to marry a man whose name you don't even know. Today. Which is what you do because during this time, that's just the way things are. Rich in historical detail and told with tender honesty, 'Mattie's Story' is a heartfelt, coming-of-age story of young Matty Cameron thrust into a life beyond her years. From family pressures, society expectations, motherhood, faith and hardship, to the trials of a marriage not of her choosing, Matty must rely on her quiet inner strength and natural resilience to navigate her journey from innocence to womanhood. Can Mattie make it through? Only time will tell.Author Biography
