Elinor Florence

My first historical novel Bird's Eye View is about a young woman who joins the air force in World War Two and becomes an aerial photographic interpreter. Published by Dundurn Press in Toronto, the novel became a Canadian bestseller in 2016.
My new novel Wildwood is about a single mother from the big city who must fulfill the conditions of her inheritance by living for one year in an abandoned, off-the-grid farmhouse in the Peace River area of northern Alberta. She is inspired by the journal written by her great-aunt, the farm's original homesteader.
I grew up on a farm in Saskatchewan and had a long career in journalism, writing for newspapers and magazines including Reader’s Digest. I even published my own newspaper before turning to fiction.
Married with three grown daughters, I now live in the tiny resort town of Invermere, British Columbia. My passions are village life, old houses, and flea markets.
