E Horò featured in the Nova Scotia Tourism Ads, recounts an immigrant's lament, in simple but poignant poetry, on the experience of Gaels compelled to leave Scotland and settle in the New World. The verses convey potent impressions of the condition of refugee Highlanders. Imagine the reactions of people from treeless islands when they first encountered the overwhelming Canadian forest.
