Arthur G. Doughty's The Acadian Exiles beautifully recounts the tragic tale of the Acadian people of Nova Scotia in the mid-18th century, who found themselves caught up in the conflict between England and France's competing colonial claims. In Doughty's chronicle, these Acadian people are forced to abandon their homes and way of life, with many dying in the process of exile. But the story of The Acadian Exiles is also one of resilience and survival. Through Doughty's careful research and attention to detail, readers will be transported to the heart of this historical tragedy and feel the weight of its impact today.
