Title: A great story.
Review: Jeremy Kane is the true to life story of a young rebel during the troubles of 1837 in Upper Canada. Sidney Allinson has captured the flavor and culture of the period in such a realistic way, that the reader feels as if he is there with the reformers as they seek to overcome the Family Compact, the privileged class of that era.The failure of the revolt and its subsequent aftermath with exile to the brutal penal colony of Australia brings to life a time of injustice, bigotry, and prejudice with a romance to warm anyone's heart.I recommend this book to any lover of history. Although this is fiction, the history is well documented and researched by a fine historical novelist. It is an excellent read!
