A LOVE STORY set against the backdrop of the First World War, the events in
Lethbridge unfold in disparate locales, from London to Boston, from Maine to
Niagara Falls, from the trenches of wartime France to the military hospitals of
England. Yet the lives of its three protagonists come together in one place: the
frontier western Canadian city of Lethbridge, Alberta.
Inspired by a true story, Lethbridge author Terry McConnell tells the tale of
an English lad abandoned by his family, and a young American escaping the
tyranny of his own father. Both come to Lethbridge in search of a future and find
themselves drawn to a pretty Scottish immigrant who struggles with her own sense
of destiny. What follows charts the future for all three in ways none of them could
have foreseen. This is their story.
