Description

What brought Monica Storrs to embark on a wilderness life in thedepressed thirties amidst the hardships of B.C.'s Peace Rivercountry - the last North American frontier? Monica Storrs was to stay in the north for twenty years. She came toa wilderness almost roadless, townless, and schoolless, withoutamenities or culture; a land of hot, dusty summers and unpredictable,sub-Arctic winters; a land of untamed and unexpected grandeur. Hearing the "clear call" of duty, she was endowed with astrong desire to serve the Anglican cause. A refined woman of 41, thedelicately reared daughter of the dean of Rochester Cathedral, she wasfollowing a family tradition in seeking missionary work in rough andalien surroundings. Her mission was the settlers and the frontier. She came to teachSunday school and the traditions of guiding and scouting to tough,work-hardened country children. She rode horseback to bring the gospelto the families of isolated farmers and trappers. She welcomed the poorand hungry to her home -- both the God-fearing and the godless. And shewas, for the most part, welcome in theirs. She and the women who became her helpers were known affectionatelyby the people of the Peace as "God's Galloping Girls."Overcoming early fears of failure and rejection, she learned to subduethe prejudices of her moral and social upbringing and at last wonacceptance and a permanent place in the heart of the north. Monica Storrs' diaries are a moving narrative of a woman'sindomitable courage, faith, and humour. Her story is a vivid, realisticdescription of frontier life and the struggle for survival. Her wordsconvey the wild and primitive beauty of the Peace River country -- notjust a region, but an adventure of the spirit.
