Part I.
The first horizon
I discover my birthplace
Introducing job's cycle
Humours of the last frontier
Treasured portrait
I meet the August ancestors
Introduction to exile
Exile
First taste of new world
Subjective interlude
God's fields
Those child transgressions
Tales strange and varied
Vignettes of a private world
Selkirk interlude
False security
Part II
The American scene opens
New friends of novel fortune
The scene brightens
Fresh misfortune
Solitary Christmas
The world enlarges
Meeting destiny
Part III.
New worlds to conquer
Adolescent conditioning
Tales out of time
I discover drama
Darker reason
Again green pastures
Magic moonlight
Deep interval
Forced decision
The north once more
Trails of a job hunter
Readjustment and the righteous few
A kitchen-view of society
The working world
And so farewell
Back to the Canadian scene
My prairie argosy
The face of virtue
I settle in my own country
Homestead and boarding-house
Birth of an author
So dreams come true
