Among the Selkirk Glaciers: Being the Account of a Rough Survey in the Rocky Mountain Regions of British Columbia (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Among the Selkirk Glaciers: Being the Account of a Rough Survey in the Rocky Mountain Regions of British Columbia
The Paper I read last winter before the Royal Geographical Society on our explorations in the Sel kirks being necessarily limited as to detail, I thought it might prove interesting to some to have a fuller account. I have therefore in the following pages at tempted, While describing our wanderings and scram bles, to give as complete a picture as possible Of the most striking phenomena Of the region we visited. Our map, now reproduced, was published in the Proceedings of the Royal Geographical Society for March, 1889, and it has been to me no small gratification to receive letters from travellers in Canada, the United States, and at home, men not previously known to me, saying that they found it useful, and that it helped them to enjoy the scenery Of the Selkirks during the past summer.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the author's daring exploration of the largely uncharted Selkirk mountain range in Canada. Inspired by tales of breathtaking scenery and fueled by a thirst for adventure, the author and his companion embark on a journey through dense forests, across vast prairies, and up treacherous, glacier-carved peaks. Their expedition takes them through a landscape steeped in history, echoing with the stories of indigenous peoples, early explorers, and the fur trade. The author paints a vivid picture of the diverse ecosystems they encounter, from the bustling life of the prairie to the stark beauty of the alpine world. As they navigate the challenges of the wilderness, the author reflects on the delicate balance between human ambition and the power of nature. This book offers a glimpse into a world untouched by modern life, reminding us of the enduring allure of exploration and the profound lessons that can be learned from the natural world.
