Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the spring of 1909, CN Railway was seemingly poised to enter the region, and a settlement rush appeared imminent. A Peace River Land Office was therefore opened at Grouard, and townships were subdivided on the grasslands of the Grande Prairie. This soon ushered in the first wave of settlement as hundreds of hopeful farmers began to pour in over the Grouard, and later, Edson Trail. Being the most northerly portion of the continent to be opened for homesteading, the Peace River became known as The Last Great West.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Peace River District Canada: Its Resources and Opportunities The Peace River District of Canada has been for many years the subject of much interest and speculation. Alluring tales from adventurous pioneers of its wonderful resources, its charming climate and varying scenery, had long since lent to the district that charm of romance which distance and uncertainty blend with glowing promises. Now the land so long famed by legend and mystery is being proved a reality. Modern transportation has brought the district to our doors, and our keen searching trials and tests are proving it to be all and more than it was represented to be. The tales were not myths; the truth was not half told, and every day added treasures of the district are being unfolded to our eyes. This district, the drainage basin of the Peace river, lies in the northern parts of the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia. It extends approximately from latitude 54 to 59 north and from longitude 112 to 125 east, and is a part of the great Mackenzie River drainage basin. Falling away from the Rocky mountains, it embraces a part of their eastern slope, and sweeps eastward and northward over a huge plateau extending to Lake Athabaska and the Athabaska and Slave rivers. The area of the Peace River drainage basin is over one hundred and fifteen thousand square miles, as shown in the following table: Of this vast area, the greater part falling within the province of Alberta, especially the territory lying immediately to either side of Peace river, is proving suitable agricultural land, either for mixed farming or ranching. To this must be added a block of three and a half million acres known as The Peace River Block, lying within the province of British Columbia and adjacent to Alberta. The balance of the British Columbia area, while containing much valuable agricultural land in various valleys, is principally a mountainous region. With those portions of the Alberta area lying at the headwaters of the various tributaries of the main river it forms a vast area of mineral and timber resources, the extent of which is only beginning to be realized.
