A propos de cet article

Description: Frontis plate with tissue guard plus twenty-six additional black and white plates, two full page drawings, and four maps -- two of these are fold-out maps. (All plates/illustrations are verified as being present.) The title page is printed in red and black. The subtitle reads: ''A record of the Royal North-West Mounted Police of Canada, 1873-1910.

I have come to realize that the glamour and romance of the north-west is not a thing of the past. All official records have been paced generously at my disposal, and so far as I am aware my errors are only errors of omission.'' BINDING/CONDITION: red cloth with gilt; top edge gilt; badly faded at the spine; owner's name and date (name followed by R N W M P, Jan 1914) -- apparently a member of the corps; a much used copy, some foxing, stains to the cloth; Fair condition. appendices, index. 8vo (about 9 inches tall). 385 pages + ads.…
