Saddle, Sled And Snowshoe: Pioneering On The Saskatchewan In The Sixties (1896) is a memoir written by John McDougall. The book details the author’s experiences as a pioneer in the Canadian prairies during the 1860s. McDougall describes the challenges and hardships of living in the harsh environment, including the extreme weather conditions, the struggle to find food and shelter, and the constant threat of attacks from Indigenous peoples. The book also delves into the cultural and social aspects of life on the prairies, including the relationships between settlers and Indigenous peoples, the role of the Hudson’s Bay Company, and the development of the fur trade. McDougall’s writing is vivid and engaging, providing a unique perspective on the early history of Western Canada. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Canadian history, particularly the history of the prairies and the Indigenous peoples who lived there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
