The debt is none the less because many of these men were obliged to undergo great hardships in their business - cut off for years from all civilized society, and compelled, if human companionship must be had, to be content with the company of the aboriginal savages of the country. Some of these lonely waifs occasionally varied the monotony of their regular employment by studying the strange land and its people and writing down the results either for the benefit of friends in the far-away home, or for a still wider constituency, or from sheer lack of anything more congenial to occupy their, leisure hours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Daniel Williams Harmon (February 19, 1778 - April 23, 1843) was a fur trader and diarist ...Harmon joined the North West Company in 1800 and gradually moved westward, finally arriving in British Columbia in 1809. There he served for ten years at Fort Saint James and Fort Fraser. Harmon was not one of the well known names in fur-trading history. He served mostly in subordinate positions and carried out no explorations. His fame rests solely on his published journal, which documents his experience in the Canadian frontier. The journal was heavily edited and rewritten for publication by the Reverend Daniel Haskel of Burlington, Vermont, and appeared with the title, "A journal of voyages and travels in the interior of North America, between the 47th and 58th degrees of north latitude, extending from Montreal nearly to the Pacific Ocean, a distance of about 5,000 miles, including an account of the principal occurrences, during a residence of nineteen years, in different parts of the country. . ." (Andover, Mass., 1820). In addition to a description of life in the fur trade during the early years of the 19th century the work is notable for its account of the moral dilemmas Harmon confronted in the context his lingering Puritan morality and the sexual customs in the frontier. Harmon took a Native American Indian wife but refused the traders' practice of abandoning them and instead returned with her to Vermont and formal marriage. The full journal consists of three parts In addition to the diary proper, there are two lengthy appendices, one on the Indians East of the Rockies (basically the Cree) and one on the Indians West of the Rockies (basically the Carrier).The latter contains the first substantial source of information about the Carrier language, in the form of a list of about 300 words."--from Wikiped, June 2014.

Harmon of the North West Fur Company ranks very high. Harmon spent nineteen years of his life in the service of the Company, eight years of which were passed beyond the Rocky Mountains, and between them and the Pacific Ocean. When he first came among them the Indians still wandered through the country in their primitive simplicity, unconscious of the existence of other human beings save them selves. He passed his life among these sav ages. He even took a wife, ad interim, from one of the tribes and lived with her until he forsook the country forever. He was there fore in a good position to study the people from a very near standpoint. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
