About this book
Frank, Alec and Sam reach Mr Ross's hunting lodge on the Nelson River, ready to spend a year in northern Canada. Their host is a retired Hudson Bay Company official whose accounts of animals and outdoor adventure persuaded the boys to seek their parents' consent. The opening retraces their passage aboard the Prince Arthur, past drifting icebergs and floating ice, with a seal hunt and trading encounters on the way to Hudson Bay.
Egerton Ryerson Young's novel for young readers combines friendship, canoe travel and the excitement of learning outdoor skills. On a later outing, Alec accepts Mustagan's challenge to compare a gun with a bow and arrow, then admires the hunter's accurate shot at a flying duck.
