The Spruce Gum Box
by Elizabeth Egerton Wilder
A Family Forged by Adversity.
A Community United by Dreams.
Addie loved to run along the
river’s edge so the wind could blow through her long hair,
released from the strict bun her father demanded. When Jed
returned from the lumber harvest in the spring, she would fly
into his arms, releasing her pent-up passion from its winter
prison. Little did they know their forbidden love would set
in motion a series of events that would forever change their
lives and make Jed a fugitive.
With a bounty on his head and his infant son hidden beneath
his coat, Jed turned to the only man he felt he could
trust—the leader of a nearby Micmac settlement. The unlikely
partnership that ensued defied all odds, overcoming bigotry,
betrayal, and the unforgiving 1820s Maine wilderness, to
stake a claim on the primitive New England landscape.
As the strife escalated between Great Britain and the United
States over the border of Maine and the rights to its
lucrative lumber industry, determination to survive and
create a life for his young son drove Jed into uncharted
territory and perilous adventure.
