He draws on his own experiences as a trader in the region, as well as on historical records and other primary sources.Overall, The Hudson Bay Company is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of Canada, the fur trade, or the development of modern business practices.''Well do I remember the first time I stumbled upon the Indian village in which he lived. I had set out from Montreal with two trappers to pay a visit to the Labrador coast; we had travelled most of the way in a small Indian canoe, coasting along the northern shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and reconnoitring in the woods for portages to avoid rounding long capes and points of land, and sometimes in search of game; for we depended almost entirely upon our guns for food.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
