Hudson Bay: Life on the Canadian Frontier

Reader, I take for granted that you are tolerably well acquainted with the different modes of life and travelling peculiar to European nations.

I would fain hope this, I say, that I may have the satisfaction of giving you information on the subject, and of showing you that there is a body of civilized men who move, and breathe (pretty cool air, by the way!), and spend their lives in a quarter of the globe as totally different, in most respects, from the part you inhabit... - Chapter 1
