''The Wild North Land'' is a book written by William Francis Butler in 1873. This book is a detailed account of his winter journey across Northern North America with dogs. The journey covered over 2,000 miles, starting from the Red River settlement in Manitoba, Canada, and ending at Fort Garry, near the present-day city of Winnipeg. Butler’s journey took place during the mid-19th century, a time when the Canadian West was still largely unexplored and inhabited by indigenous peoples. The book is a fascinating account of the harsh conditions and challenges faced by Butler and his companions as they traveled through the wilderness. The author’s vivid descriptions of the landscape, climate, and wildlife of Northern North America provide readers with a sense of the beauty and majesty of this remote region. The book also offers insights into the culture and traditions of the indigenous peoples who lived in the area at the time.Overall, ''The Wild North Land'' is a compelling and insightful read that offers a unique perspective on the history and geography of Northern North America. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of exploration and adventure in this region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
