Description:

The story of Marie, a young Qubecoise farm woman, who leaves Canada in search of her missing soldier husband, Jean, with their young daughter. She supports herself in Lowell, MA and Manchester, NH as a housekeeper and the proprietor of a dress shop, but meets a tragic end. Marie and Jeans saga unfolds against the background of the French-Canadian migrations to the mill towns of New England (1840s-1930s) and the American Civil War (1861-1865). A recognized classic of Franco-American literature, LInnocente Victime was reprinted in the original French in 1980 with Title VII ESEA funds. Foreword, Preface, Introduction, Chapter Notes, and Bibliography are included with the translated text.
