The Arctic Prairies : a Canoe-Journey of 2,000 Miles in Search of the Caribou

In 'The Arctic Prairies', Ernest Thompson Seton takes readers on an unforgettable journey through the untamed wilderness of the far North-West. With his account of a six-month canoe journey down the Athabasca River and through the forested country of its lake and river continuations, Seton captures the essence of a bygone era. His enthusiasm for wildlife is palpable throughout the book, and eventually, Seton's search for the caribou leads him to abundant and unexpected rewards, which he shares with readers in his appendices.
