Summary: "La première canadienne du Nord-ouest" by Georges Dugas is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book primarily chronicles the life of Marie-Anne Gaboury, the first French-Canadian woman to settle in the North-West, detailing her arrival in the region in 1806 and the challenges she faced. Through her experiences, the text delves into themes of courage, resilience, and the harsh realities of life in a largely untamed land. At the start of the narrative, the author sets the stage for Marie-Anne Gaboury’s journey, highlighting her life in Maskinongé and her eventual marriage to J.-Bte Lajimonière. Soon after their wedding, she learns that her husband intends to return to the North-West, compelling her to decide between staying behind or following him into the wilderness. The opening illustrates her initial quiet life and juxtaposes it with the adventurous and perilous path that lies ahead, as she resolves to accompany her husband into unknown territory, thus embarking on a remarkable journey defined by hardship and resilience.
