Over Prairie Trails
The Canadian author Frederick Philip Grove (1879- 1948) was actually a German-Canadian author after the fact: he was born Felix Paul Greve in Radomno, West Prussia (Poland after 1918), and grew up in Hamburg. When he arrived in Manitoba in 1912, he adopted the name Grove along with his new Canadian identity. In his autobiographies he claimed to be of Anglo-Swedish descent, and only twenty-five years after his death did D. O. Spettigue, Queen’s University, uncover who he really was. His works include: Wanderungen (1902), Helena und Damon (1902), Over Prairie Trails (1922), Turn of the Year (1923), Settlers of the Marsh (1925), Our Daily Bread (1928), It Needs to Be Said (1929), Two Generations (1939) and The Master of the Mill (1944).
