This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Narrative of the Journeys of David Thompson, in North-Western America An excellent account of the early expeditions to the head waters of the Mississippi is given by Mr. N. H. Winchell, in his Historical Introduction in the Final Report on the Geology of Minnesota, 1884. In giving an account of Lieut. Pike's journey to Red Cedar (cass) Lake in 1806, he there states that Mr. Thompson's maps and papers never having been pub lished, Lieut. Pike is to be accredited with the first authenticated examination of the Mississippi valley from the St. Francis River to Red Cedar Lake. The first who is stated to have travelled through the country north of Red Cedar Lake was J. C. Beltrami, an Italian gentleman, who accompanied Major Long's expedition as far as Pembina. He ascended Bloody (red Lake) River to Red Lake and from thence followed Thompson's route to Turtle Lake, whence he descended the Mississippi to its mouth. This was in the summer of 1823, nine years after Thompson had recorded his discoveries on the above mentioned map, and twenty-five years after he had made the survey of his course. In a note at the end of this Historical Introduction however, it is stated that Neil in the 4th edition of his History of Minnesota gives a short account of Thompson's journey across the State in A. D. 1798, which appears to be approximately correct. I have not been able to see a copy of this edition of Neil's History and cannot speak further of it.

Book excerpt: Popular historian D’Arcy Jenish recreates the adventure and sacrifice of mapmaker David Thompson’s fascinating life in the wilderness of North America. Epic Wanderer, the first full-length biography of David Thompson, is set in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries against a broad canvas of dramatic rivalries—between the United States and British North America, between the Hudson’s Bay Company and its Montreal-based rival, the North West Co., and between the various First Nations thrown into disarray by the advent of guns, horses and alcohol. Less celebrated than his contemporaries Lewis and Clark, Thompson spent nearly three decades (1784–1812) surveying and mapping over 1.2 million square miles of largely uncharted Indian territory. Travelling across the prairies, over the Rockies and on to the Pacific, Thompson transformed the raw data of his explorations into a map of the Canadian West. Measuring ten feet by seven feet, and laid out with astonishing accuracy, the map became essential to the politicians and diplomats who would decide upon the future of the rich and promising lands of the West. Yet its creator worked without personal glory and died in penniless obscurity. Drawing extensively on David Thompson’s personal journals, illustrated with his detailed sketches, intricate notebook pages and the map itself, Epic Wanderer charts the life of a man who risked everything in the name of scientific advancement and exploration.

This book was released on 2017-08-10 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE account here published of the explorations of David Thompson in the western parts of Canada and the United States was written by Thompson himself when he was about seventy years old and still in the full possession of all his faculties, but after the active part of his life-work was completed and when he had retired to Montreal in the hope of enjoying his remaining years in quietude. While he was writing this history of the portion of his life in which he undoubtedly took the most interest, he kept his note-books before him, and with their assistance he retraced the scenes through which he had passed in the days of his youth and strength. He tells his story with an accuracy that has rarely been equalled in the case of an old man who is recounting the experiences of his younger days. I have carefully compared his narrative with his note-books, written by him from day to day as he travelled through the country, and in comparatively few instances were discrepancies found ; where these occur they are indicated in the notes at the bottom of the pages...
