The Acadian Proscript is a historical drama written by Walter S. Kerr and published in 1907. The play is set in the mid-18th century during the French and Indian War and tells the story of the Acadian people, who were forcibly removed from their homes in Nova Scotia by the British. The play follows the main character, Pierre, as he struggles to protect his family and community from the British soldiers who are intent on deporting them. The play is divided into five acts and features a cast of characters that includes both historical figures and fictional creations. Through its depiction of the Acadian people's struggle for survival, The Acadian Proscript provides a powerful commentary on the themes of identity, displacement, and resistance. Overall, this play is a poignant exploration of a little-known chapter of North American history and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
