About this ebook
The opening of Canada from Cartier to the fur brigades and the overland parties that reached the Pacific, told in one volume by a man who had led expeditions himself. Johnston illustrated his own books and had an administrator's eye for what a river crossing actually costs. This edition adds 54 bound plates of painting from 1830 to 1903, among them Bierstadt, Church, Moran and Remington.
