Overview:

After losing their father in the Boer War, orphaned brothers Harry and Davy must leave their home in Scotland to live with their grandmother and cantankerous grandfather in Nova Scotia.

Then, when the brothers find an abandoned baby, they decide to keep it – but the foundling may not have been abandoned after all.
