Synopsis

In "The Border Boys Along the St. Lawrence," John Henry Goldfrap crafts a captivating narrative that weaves together adventure, friendship, and the struggles of youth against the backdrop of North America'Äôs significant borderlands. Employing a lively prose style interspersed with rich descriptive passages, Goldfrap captures the essence of the landscape along the St. Lawrence River, highlighting its natural beauty and cultural significance. This work is situated within the broader context of early 20th-century American literature that often foregrounds themes of exploration and camaraderie, resonating with readers who appreciate tales of youthful daring and moral growth. John Henry Goldfrap was an adventurer both in spirit and in life, with experiences that likely shaped his understanding of youth and border cultures. Born in the mid-19th century, Goldfrap matured amidst a rapidly evolving America, marked by industrialization and shifting social dynamics. His background, combined with keen observations of the socio-political climate of his time, ignited his imagination, stimulating a narrative that not only entertains but also educates young readers about resilience and integrity. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Border Boys Along the St. Lawrence" to those who seek an engaging tale steeped in historical authenticity and adventure. Perfect for readers young and old seeking to rekindle the embers of youthful escapades, Goldfrap's classic remains a vital addition to the canon of American literature, inviting reflection on the timeless themes of friendship, loyalty, and the spirit of exploration.

    This is the Māori language edition of Tāwhaki: The Deeds of a Demigod. The book recalls the miraculous life of Tāwhaki. Similar to Māui, Tāwhaki was a demigod who possessed mighty powers. Tāwhaki almost died at the hands of his brothers-in-law but was found by his wife Hine-piripiri and revived. This near-death experience revealed Tāwhaki's status as a demigod, and from this point Tāwhaki continued to use his powers and gifts to help those around him in ways no human could. This book explores many of these stories, including those of Tāwhaki restoring sight to his blind grandmother and climbing the heavens to find his wife and child.
