Arthur G. Doughty's The Acadian Exiles beautifully recounts the tragic tale of the Acadian people of Nova Scotia in the mid-18th century, who found themselves caught up in the conflict between England and France's competing colonial claims. In Doughty's chronicle, these Acadian people are forced to abandon their homes and way of life, with many dying in the process of exile. But the story of The Acadian Exiles is also one of resilience and survival. Through Doughty's careful research and attention to detail, readers will be transported to the heart of this historical tragedy and feel the weight of its impact today.

The Acadian Exiles a Chronicle of the Land of Evangeline by Arthur G. (Arthur George) Doughty The name Acadia, [Footnote: The origin of the name is uncertain. By some authorities it is supposed to be derived from the Micmac algaty, signifying a camp or settlement. Others have traced it to the Micmac akade, meaning a place where something abounds. Thus, Sunakade (Shunacadie, C. B.), the cranberry place; Seguboon-akade (Shubenacadie), the place of the potato, etc. The earliest map marking the country, that of Ruscelli (1561), gives the name Lacardie. Andre Thivet, a French writer, mentions the country in 1575 as Arcadia; and many modern writers believe Acadia to be merely a corruption of that classic name.] which we now associate with a great tragedy of history and song, was first used by the French to distinguish the eastern or maritime part of New France from the western part, which began with the St Lawrence valley and was called Canada. Just where Acadia ended and Canada began the French never clearly defined-in course of time, as will be seen, this question became a cause of war with the English-but we shall not be much at fault if we take a line from the mouth of the river Penobscot, due north to the St Lawrence, to mark the western frontier of the Acadia of the French. Thus, as the map shows, Acadia lay in that great peninsula which is flanked by two large islands, and is washed on the north and east by the river and gulf of St Lawrence, and on the south by the Atlantic Ocean; and it comprised what are to-day parts of Quebec and Maine, as well as the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. When the French came, and for long after, this country was the hunting ground of tribes of the Algonquin race-Micmacs, Malecites, and Abnakis or Abenakis.
