Description:New edition with notes, illustrative and biographical, by James Bain, Chief Librarian, Toronto Public Library."Travels and Adventures in Canada and the Indian Territories, Between the Years 1760 and 1776" was written by Alexander Henry (the elder), one of the first Britons to venture into western Indigenous territory after the defeat of the French at Québec. Henry describes his experiences among the Indians and Canadiens in sharp, clean prose. Particularly memorable is his eyewitness account of the capture of Fort Michilimackinac; the Ojibwa slaughtered the British garrison after entering the fort on the pretext of chasing a lacrosse ball, and Henry narrowly escaped with his life. Henry's comprehensive, detailed and occasionally blood-chilling narrative is among the most engaging and best written of the fur traders' records. The account has become an adventure classic and is still considered one of the best descriptions of Indian life at the time of Henry’s travels.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
