The Barren Ground of Northern Canada
О книге
The sole object of the author's journey is to try and penetrate the Barren Ground of Northern Canada, to see the Musk-ox, and find out as much as the author could about their habits, and the habits of the Indians who go in pursuit of them every year. The author's only excuse for publishing this account of my travels is that the subject is a reasonably new one, and deals with a branch of sport that has never been described. The author has spared the reader statistics, and has kept his story as short as possible. He hopes that in return anyone who may be interested in these pages will spare his comments on faulty style, and the various errors into which a man who has spent much time among the big game is sure to fall when he is rash enough to lay down his rifle and take up the pen.
