“JEREMY KANE: A Canadian Historical Adventure Novel Of The 1837 Mackenzie Rebellion And Its Brutal Aftermath In The Australian Penal Colonies.”

A young Ontario rebel's adventures in love, politics, and war, amidst violent events that helped shape Canada's early nationhood. Romantically involved with two beautiful -- and very different -- young sisters, Jeremy is caught up in the 1837 Mackenzie Rebellion, its ruthless suppression, and the deportation of 100 Canadian rebels and American sympathizers to the brutal penal colonies of Australia. There, he endures the hell of convict chain-gangs, tribal savagery, magnificent wilderness, unselfish devotion, and eventual triumph of the human spirit. Colonial intrigue, battlefields, sensuality, harsh prison-camps, and primitive aboriginal life are described with unblinking realism. Mixing actual history with fast-paced storytelling, filled with colorful characters and period detail, Jeremy Kane is a masterful re-creation of 19th Century Canada and Australia's untamed Outback, combining an unforgettable love story with a saga of courage.
