The year is 1913. Louisa and her husband Fred, along with their young daughter, leave the only place they have ever known to travel across the ocean to an unknown land. They leave because of hardships endured for so many years in England. Their hope for a better life in Canada gives them the courage to leave family and friends behind.

But will life be any better overseas? Will Canadians welcome them with open arms or despise them as intruders in their land?

"Excellent read! Louisa's Journey is inspirational! It provides insight into Canadian history that so many of us have been unaware of and new reason to respect those who made the journey to this new land.
