Grand River
Description
GRAND RIVER takes the MacLeod family from Scotland to Nova Scotia and beyond, enduring the hardships of immigration and war, love and loss, crime and punishment. It focuses on three brothers who make their way through major historic events of the 20th century and explores the complex relationships that constitute family.
Neil, the impetuous brother who enlists in the army in 1914 without informing his first love and fiance, and spends decades trying to win her back. Rod, the dreamer, fascinated by the science of flight goes to England to learn how to become a better pilot and finds himself fighting over the skies of France. He spends years searching war-torn Europe for the mysterious nurse who helped him recover from a near fatal plane crash. Norman, the youngest brother, became educated in the Arts and Business and became a successful entrepreneur who ended up on the wrong side of the law.
Told with humor and respect for history, Grand River is a heart-warming, family saga that is enlightening and enduring.
