About This Item
Markham, ON: Viking , 1985. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. SIGNED BY PETER C. NEWMAN on half-title page; edge wear to dust jacket; light age tanning to pages; otherwise very minimal wear; Peter C. Newman's sweeping chronicle of the Hudson's Bay Company is a vivid and dramatic account of the people and events that ultimately determined the destiny of a continent. In telling these stories, Newman skilfully marshals a congress of the most colourful merchant adventurers ever assembled: Radisson and Groseilliers, the woodrunners who first divined the Hudson Bay fur route; Knight, the octogenarian prospector who vanished in mysterious circumstances; and Thanadelthur, the Slave Woman who whispered the secret of the Klondike a hundred years before the Gold Rush. They and many others became Caesars of the wilderness - the men and women who created the Company that became the heart of a nation.
