  • "At the end of the 17th century, a French family, the Auclairs, begin a new life in Quebec. On her mother's death, Cecile is entrusted with the care of the household and of her father Euclid, the town's apothecary. For her father this is a painful exile, but for Cecile there are inumerable joys as old ties are relinquished and new ones are formed."
  • "Set in the late seventeenth century, the novel centers on the activities of the widowed apothecary Euclide Auclair and his young daughter, Cecile. To Auclair's house and shop come trappers, missionaries, craftsmen, the indigent, those seeking cures, a taste of France, or liberation from the corruptions caused there by the excesses of the French court. Set against these fictional characters, historical personages such as Bishop Laval, Count Frontenac, and others contend in the political life of the vast colony."@en
