Description:Excerpt from Isabella Valancy CrawfordIt is perhaps inevitable that what the Irish call a' trouble should exist between the mystical and the actual life of every artist. In the case of Isabella Valancy Crawford this conﬂict began generations before her day, for she was of the fatal Celtic origin that gathers trouble to itself as naturally as it gathers joy.The Crawfords were of Highland, and later of Irish, descent, and it was in Dublin, on Christmas Day, 1850, that there was born to Sydney Scott, and Stephen Dennis Crawford,her husband, a daughter, whom they named for a maternal relative, Isabella Val ancy. Dr. Crawford was a man of wide ex perience and literary culture. There was much to claim his interest and affection in sophisticated Dublin, but the tales of wealth in British North America were fabulous, and his family was large, and the children were delicate. In 1858 they migrated to Canada, and, of all places, to a little Ontario village just emerging from the bush, the village of Paisley upon the Saugeen River. Here, instead of golden guineas, ordinary farm produce was exchanged for medical service, and there was hardship for them all. But from the first the family lived true to its traditions, and even yet in Paisley one may hear echoes of the Craw fords' dignified hospitality.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
