The 15 sketches that make up *Glengarry School Days* look back affectionately on childhood in Ontario at the time of Confederation. Yet behind Connor’s delightful account of boyhood enthusiasms – and his clear desire for a more orderly and courageous world – lie glimpses of the moral rigidity that also characterized homesteading life in early Canada.

Wildly popular when first published in 1902, *Glengarry School Days* still captivates readers with its detailed portrait of children and their misadventures.
