Synopsis

""Notes of a Twenty-Five Years' Service in the Hudson's Bay Territory V2"" is a memoir written by John M'Lean, recounting his experiences working for the Hudson's Bay Company in Canada's remote and rugged north for a quarter of a century. The book is a continuation of the first volume, and covers the years 1840 to 1865. M'Lean was a skilled fur trader, and his memoir provides a fascinating insight into the daily life and challenges faced by those working in the fur trade during this period. He describes the harsh conditions of the Canadian wilderness, the relationships between the indigenous peoples and the fur traders, and the struggles of the Hudson's Bay Company to maintain its dominance in the region in the face of competition from other companies.The book also provides a glimpse into the personal life of M'Lean, including his marriage to a M�����tis woman, and the challenges they faced as an interracial couple in a society that was deeply divided along racial lines. Overall, ""Notes of a Twenty-Five Years' Service in the Hudson's Bay Territory V2"" is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a fascinating period in Canadian history, and provides a unique perspective on the experiences of those who lived and worked in the remote and rugged north of the country.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
