Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Dominion Government Expedition to Hudson Bay and the Arctic Islands: On Board the D. G. S. Neptune, 1903-1904 Sir, - I have the honour to submit herewith my report on the expedition to Hudson Bay and northward thereof, in the steamship Neptune; to which, on your kind recommendation, I was appointed officer in charge by a commission authorized under an order in council of August 13, 1903. Permit me to here acknowledge the kindly and valuable assistance afforded me by Colonel F. Gourdeau, Deputy Minister of the Department of Marine and Fisheries, by Commander G. O. V. Spain, and by all the officers of the department at Ottawa and Halifax, with whom it was my duty and privilege to work. The greater part of the credit for the complete and successful accomplishment of all the instructions for the voyage is due to Captain S. W. Bartlett, the officers and the crew of the Neptune. Their prompt and cheerful attention to orders and their willing co-operation in all matters relating to the expedition deserve the highest praise. I have great pleasure in calling attention to the valuable work of the scientific staff of the expedition. Dr. L. E. Borden, by his skill and attention, kept everybody in a good general state of health, and in addition rendered great assistance in the collection of specimens and data relating to ethnology, botany and zoology. Mr. Andrew Halkett, Naturalist of the Department of Marine and Fisheries, was indefatigable in the work of collecting specimens in all branches of natural history. Mr. C. F. King, who was attached from the staff of the Geological Survey, took charge in an able manner of the topographical work, and was willingly assisted by Messrs. Caldwell and Ross and by the officers of the ship. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Hearne's 'A Journey from Prince of Wales's Fort in Hudson's Bay to the Northern Ocean' is a remarkable travel narrative that chronicles Hearne's expedition to discover a trade route to the Arctic Ocean. Written in a straightforward and detailed style, the book provides a vivid account of Hearne's encounters with Indigenous peoples, wildlife, and the harsh environment of the Canadian North. Hearne's observations of the landscape and his interactions with the Dene people offer valuable insights into the history and culture of the region during the 18th century. This book stands out as a significant early example of Canadian exploration literature. Samuel Hearne, a Hudson's Bay Company employee and experienced explorer, was uniquely positioned to undertake this challenging journey. His keen observational skills and understanding of Indigenous traditions make his narrative both informative and engaging. Hearne's firsthand account of his travels reflects his deep respect for the land and its inhabitants. I highly recommend 'A Journey from Prince of Wales's Fort in Hudson's Bay to the Northern Ocean' to readers interested in early Canadian exploration, Indigenous cultures, and tales of adventure in the Arctic wilderness. Hearne's narrative is a valuable historical document that continues to captivate audiences with its vivid descriptions and compelling storytelling.

Download or read book Stefansson and the Canadian Arctic written by Richard Diubaldo and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1999-01-18 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stefansson's contributions to arctic exploration are immense. He discovered some of the world's last major land masses in the Arctic and his hydrographic soundings outlined, for the first time, the continental shelf from Alaska to Prince Patrick Island and revealed the submarine mountains and valleys beneath the Beaufort Sea. While in the Arctic he lived with the Inuit, learning their habits and language, and kept a detailed record of early Inuit society. However, some of Stefansson's deeds, and the motives behind them, garnered less acclaim. In one instance Stefansson was accused of abandoning ship just before the ship was crushed in the ice, a heinous act for the leader of an expedition. On another occasion, following a disastrous expedition to Wrangel Island during which great numbers of the party died, Stefansson was accused of deliberately misleading members of the expedition and lying about the perils that faced them. The affair caused Canada to become embroiled with the United States and the Soviet Union, and many argued that Stefansson was more concerned with personal fame and financial gain than people's lives. Was Stefansson a prophet or a profiteer, a victim or a villain? Stefansson and the Canadian Arctic reveals the truth about this fascinating personality.
