About this audiobook
This edition includes the following editor's introduction: Robert Michael Ballantyne, the Scottish master of the adventure genre for young people
Originally published in 1848, “Hudson Bay” is Scottish author Robert Michael Ballantyne's most famous book, detailing the life of a fur trader in the Canadian wilderness.
"Hudson Bay" follows Ballantyne from the shores of the Thames and Hudson Bay to the company's colony at Red River, located in present-day Winnipeg.
This work is truly quite extraordinary; with it, the reader may explore the New World, with all its peculiarities and dangers, for the first time alongside Ballantyne. The author also details the business of fur trading, the habits of local Native American tribes and the workings of life at the colony.
"Hudson Bay" is a uniquely personal and detailed journey into the lives of men crucial to the development of the North American continent's economy.
