Acland, Eric: Drums Of Niagara. An Adventure Story of Early Canada; Hardback Toronto: Thomas Nelson and Sons (Canada) Limited, 1953 First Edition [stated]. Book Good in a poor Dust Jacket. An adventure story of the valiant days when man and boy set out to build a nation with little else save a musket and broad-axe as tools. Young Peter Hartley learns the price of loyalty and finds the will to fight through against all odds. Because he saves Fort Niagara, and with it the North-West, he is granted the King's Commission. Through this historically accurate and living narrative emerges clearly the story of the birth of British Canada. The young hero takes his place in the First Parliament of Upper Canada, with his neighbours of many races, overcomes the forces of cynicism and selfishness to lay the foundations of democratic government. Blue boards. B/w frontispiece and many illustrated chapter headings. Illustrated by Marjorie Lusk Fortey. Endpapers make up a two-page spread of "Plans and Sketches of Niagara" by Peter Hartley. Book covers are faded along edges and in patches at spine head and tail where jacket is holed, rubs at spine ends and edges, and very small scuffs to front. Internally tight and clean with very light toning at margins. Jacket poor with missing pieces. Ref 16726: £7.50
