Synopsis

Trooper And Redskin In The Far Northwest is a memoir written by John G. Donkin, who served as a member of the Northwest Mounted Police in Canada from 1884 to 1888. The book offers a detailed account of his experiences as a trooper in the Canadian wilderness, where he encountered various challenges, including harsh weather conditions, dangerous wildlife, and conflicts with Indigenous peoples.Donkin's narrative provides insight into the daily life of a Mountie during this period, including the training and discipline required to maintain law and order in the remote regions of Canada. The book also offers a glimpse into the cultural clashes that occurred between the Indigenous peoples and the settlers, as well as the efforts made by the Mounties to establish peaceful relations.Throughout the book, Donkin shares his personal experiences and observations, including his interactions with notable figures such as Sitting Bull and his participation in the Riel Rebellion. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the early days of the Northwest Mounted Police and the challenges faced by those who served in this important institution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
