A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the newspapers there has recently appeared what purported to be a true account of the experiences of an Indian who, in the autumn of 1915, became separated from his companions in the extensive uninhabited region south of Hudson Bay. Surrounded by conditions pecuharly unfavorable to human existence and confronted by dangers that would have overwhelmed a man lacking in courage and initiative, this native American maintained his poise and app Ued himself to the task of mastering the situation into which a seemingly unkind fate had brought him. Not only did this Indian successfully resist the hostile forces that threatened his destruction but, with no mechanical apphance other than a knife, he started a fire, erected a shelter, fashioned traps for fish and game and supplied himself with the three essentials of life, food, clothing and a habitation. Before the long sub-arctic winter was over he had gathered a large stock of furs and had constructed a canoe in which to transport his furs to a place where they would have a value a hundred fold greater than in the wilderness in which he had collected them.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
