Second Edition, Limited to 550 copies. A vivid and entertaining memoir of life in the service of the Hudson s Bay Company. McLean joined the Company in 1821, and was successively stationed in the Ottawa Valley, the North-West, on the Pacific Coast, in Hudson s Bay, and in Labrador. Of particular value is the section dealing with the Labrador Peninsula, a little known area at the time, and one which McLean is credited with being the first white man to traverse in its entirety. There he discovered the Grand Falls on the Northwest River. The life and customs of the various Canadian native tribes and Esquimaux are described with some detail, especially in their relations with the Hudson s Bay Company.
