Profit and Ambition: The Canadian Fur Trade, 1779–1821 tells the story of the North West Company, an extraordinary consortium of Montréal entrepreneurs, Scottish explorers, French-Canadian voyageurs, Métis bison hunters, and Aboriginal trappers and guides. Together, they created a commercial empire, opened new routes across the continent, and laid the groundwork for the Canada we know today. |
