Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a timely guide for Canadian volunteers returning from service in the North West Rebellion of 1885. It provides essential information about the land grants and scrip offered to those who fought in the conflict, helping them understand the value of their reward and navigate the complex process of claiming it. Written in response to a growing number of volunteers selling their land grants for far less than their actual worth, the book acts as a critical resource, offering clear explanations of the legal rights and obligations of those entitled to the bounty. The author, a veteran of earlier military campaigns, uses his firsthand experience to shed light on the historical context of land grants as a form of military compensation. He delves into the nuances of homesteading regulations, examining the advantages and challenges of utilizing the land grant, and also detailing the risks and potential drawbacks of accepting scrip in lieu of land. The book's in-depth analysis of the legal framework governing land grants, including the Dominion Lands Act, provides a valuable guide for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of land acquisition in the North West Territories. This valuable resource, offering practical advice and insightful analysis, serves as a vital record of the government's land grant program in the wake of the 1885 rebellion and offers invaluable guidance for those seeking to maximize the potential of their well-deserved reward.
