Henday set out from England in June 1754 to winter along the Saskatchewan River for the Company, and not only had an easy time of it, but also kept a detailed journal of the region, the Indian and French traders, and other observations. The original manuscript has vanished, and four copies remain, each substantially different from the other three. Of these, scholars have relied on a poorly edited one. Belyea here combines all four versions, with contextual notes and a reassessment of the information in them. Canadian card order number: C99-932174-9. Annotation c.
