Lizzie, the Lakers and the Lumbermen Lillian M Henry

From the 1880s through the 1930s, Lizzie, the Lakers and the Lumbermen tells the story of love lost and found along the north county border between Canada and the United States well before the Saint Lawrence Seaway was built. Prim and proper Elizabeth Foster falls in love and marries the burly sailor and lumberman George Burns despite her father's objections. They raise their large family in several small towns on both sides of that long and busy waterway.
Inheriting their parents' determination, each of their children will demonstrate they also have minds of their own and choose their life's paths accordingly. Surrounded by the beauty of the majestic river and the gorgeous foliage of the maple trees, the family creates a legacy of love to be valued by their descendants.
