Book excerpt: First Crossing recounts an adventure of epic proportions -- in equal parts romantic, historically significant and compelling. It is the story of Canada's most famous explorer, Alexander Mackenzie, who in 1793 became the first person to cross the continent of North America north of Mexico. With a mix of wonderfully readable text, historical and contemporary photographs, and archival maps and illustrations, here is fresh insight into what drove Mackenzie to undertake his dramatic and dangerous quest for the Pacific Ocean, and how his daring secured Canada's legacy.

Book excerpt: What is it about the desolate far North American wilderness that calls the intrepid traveler to uncover its sanctifying and deadly secrets? From Jack London (Call of the Wild) to Christopher McCandless (chronicled in Jon Krakauer’s Into the Wild) souls have found solace in the silent, frozen northern kingdom at the top of the world, the Ultima Thule. The forested flatlands give way to the frozen Rocky Mountains over millions of acres nominally in the dominion of both the United States and Canada and accessible by its 1532 mile shared umbilical cord—The Alcan Highway. Legendary vagabond, Jim Christy, a Canadian now but born an American travels this road throughout his life. First as a young man in the early 1960s hungry for rugged adventure then revisiting the journey every few years both observing and reflecting on the growth of Northwest in the Rough Road to the North. Christy vividly describes the history of the indigenous people and the hearty (and often foolhardy) pioneers who built the Alcan highway and opened the northern road. Christy’s lyrical text weaves fulsome magic about the siren call of the last unconquered land of North America.

Download or read book Prophecy of the Swan written by J. Scott Hamilton and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prophecy of the Swan covers twenty-nine years in the history of the Peace River valley in northeastern British Columbia. A vivid portrayal of life in some of the most isolated fur trade posts, it describes the intense competition between the North West and the Hudson's Bay companies, the individuals who were involved in exploration and commerce, and, finally, the shocking 'massacre of St. Johns.' It is unique in its integration of historic information and archaeological discovery, as it combines information recovered from many years of archaeological excavation with first-hand impressions of day-to-day life drawn from the few existing journals kept by company clerks.

Download or read book Where the River Ran written by Thelma Irvine and published by TouchWood Editions. This book was released on 2000 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where the River Ran presents the story of the Peace, the river and the land, in a sequence of short stories and poems. The history of the Peace is brought to life through an imaginative mix of fictional storytellers and historical events. To Thelma Irvine, the Peace is much more than an attractive landscape and a mighty river. In this book a cast of fascinating characters moves through the pages to recreate the adventures of the past. They challenge rapids and canyons, rough trails and loneliness to become the heritage of the present day. The written history of the Peace includes exploration, fur trading, gold mining, the search for new railway passes, and the development of resources. This book is part prose, part poetry, entertaining and informative. The narrators are fictitious. Many people and events are historical.
