Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Prairie Provinces; A Short History of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta, Being a Revision of a History of Manitoba and the North-West Territories: For Use in Public Schools
To this mysterious land came good missionaries, to bring the gospel and education and higher forms of living; and keen traders and mer chants, to become rich by trading with the Indians, chie?y for furs; and bold adventurers who are ever ready to go into new and wild territories, partly for sport, partly for the joy of discovery, and partly from national pride in aiding to extend the possessions of their own country.
