Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the gripping true story of John Dixon, an Englishman who emigrated to Oregon in 1801. Seeking freedom from the oppressive rule of the Hudson's Bay Company, Dixon and his two companions ventured into the wilds of the Northwest Territory to trap for furs. Their success is initially extraordinary, but their idyllic existence is shattered when they are captured by a band of Blackfeet Indians. The author vividly recounts the harrowing experiences of Dixon and his companions as they are stripped of their possessions, forced to endure harsh treatment, and left with little hope for survival. The narrative explores themes of human resilience, the dangers of venturing into the unknown, and the brutal realities of life on the American frontier in the early 19th century. The book, compiled from Dixon's own notes, offers a unique and poignant glimpse into the harsh realities of life for fur traders in the West, and the constant threat posed by native tribes.
