A Very Good, almost Near Fine copy. Volume XVII in the Publications of the Hudson's Bay Record Society series. A collection of reprinted journal entries from 1783-1785 relating to the Hudson's Bay Company's posts in the Southern Department of Hudson Bay. Excerpt from Preface: "This is the first volume to be published by the Record Society which deals specifically with the affairs of the posts at the Bottom of the Bay--the Southern Department as it was later called. There the earliest posts established by the Company were set up and there the earliest effects of French competition were felt." Contents are listed as follows: "Preface," "Introduction," "Moose Fort Journal, 1783-84," "Moose Fort Journal, 1784-85," "Appendix A: Moose Fort Correspondence Books, 1783-84 and 1784-85," "Appendix B: Posts," "Appendix C: Biographies," "Appendix D: Standard of Trade, 1783-84," "and "Index."
