24cm, cxxx,372p. appendices, frontis plate, limited to 550 copies, this being #85, original crested red cloth, t.e.g., very good to fine copy. (Ar) "The document here published is not, properly speaking, a document of the Hudson's Bay Company at all, although it is preserved in the Company archives. It is a selection of Colin Robertson's letters, copied perhaps with a view to publication, and most of them originally addressed to private persons rather than to officials of the company. Yet it has an important place in any attempt to publish the documents which will furnish to the historian the raw materials from which to reconstruct the story of the union of the Hudson's Bay Company and the North West Company".
