Fantastic history of the opening of North America by canoe. Fascinating history of exploration west from Montreal and Quebec to the Pacific. Role of the traders and trappers in opening western Canada and present day northwestern US. Hardships. Customs. A real who's who from 16th to 19th century. Well researched. A long, slow read, but well worth it.
