On Snow-Shoes to the Barren Grounds : Twenty-Eight Hundred Miles After Musk-Oxen and Wood-Bison PDF
by Caspar Whitney
Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. And why I turned my face towards a country which seemed to hold naught for the traveller but hardship?
Well - certainly to hunt musk-ox, the most inaccessible game in the world, and to look upon his habitat at the period of its uttermost desolation; certainly also to study the several tribes of Indians through which I must pass on my way to the Barren Grounds; and en route to hunt wood bison, undoubtedly now become the rarest game in the world; Possibly, too, I went that I might for a time escape the hum and routine sordidness of the City, and breathe air which was not surcharged with convention and Civilization.
