The lovely and descriptive writing entices the reader to read each chapter at first glance. The narrative begins when the early express trains from Montreal to Portland, Maine, get congested. Mr. Richard Gilbert, an attorney from New York, arrived five minutes early and found only one empty seat near the door. When Mr. Gilbert took over the place, a crusty old farmer grabbed the top and pushed it violently toward the window in anger. And Mr. Gilbert, pleased with himself for getting a spot near the stove, opened the soggy Montreal True Witness and settled down for a reading session. He opened the main article, read three paragraphs, and hadn't returned to it since. When the door opened, the March wind howled, the March rain poured in, and Mr. Richard Gilbert lifted his eyes to see a new passenger at the doorway. It was written by May Agnes Fleming, one of the first Canadians to achieve great success in her field as a well-known fiction author.

Carrie MacMillan, Lorraine McMullen, and Elizabeth Waterston have uncovered information about the lives and works of six such writers. Rosanna Leprohon, May Agnes Fleming, Margaret Murray Robertson, Susan Frances Harrison, Margaret Marshall Saunders, and Joanna E. Wood were once-popular novelists who are now for the most part ignored, with virtually all of their works out of print. MacMillan, McMullen, and Waterston show that these six writers deserve modern recognition not only for their literary accomplishments but also for what they reveal, through their work and their lives, about the condition of the woman writer in nineteenth-century Canada. The writings of these six women from varied backgrounds reflect their different experiences of life in the late nineteenth century. In this study a biographical profile of each author, set in the contemporary social context, is provided, as well as an analysis of career development, emphasising publishing history and critical response. As each case history unfolds, the broader picture emerges of an era when many ideas of personal and public life were changing.
