Wrong is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the establishment and development of Murray Bay (Malbaie) in Canada, focusing on the experiences of its seigneurs over a century following the British conquest. It delves into the lives of Colonel John Nairne and Colonel Fraser, chronicling the growth of the manor, the settlement of the area, and the interaction between British settlers and the local French Canadian population. The opening of the book introduces readers to the scenic beauty and historical context of Murray Bay. The author reflects on his initial perceptions of the area as simple and nearly devoid of history before uncovering its past through manuscripts and letters from the early settlers. This historical exploration reveals the ambitions and challenges faced by the first British settlers, particularly Colonel Nairne, who established a significant presence in Malbaie while interacting with both Scottish and French Canadian communities. This groundwork suggests that the narrative will encompass themes of cultural interaction, the complexities of colonial life, and the eventual decline of a once-prominent family in the region.
