About this title

Synopsis

The Wild Ride is a book like no other—an epic record of the opening of the Canadian west. It is the story of a force of untested young men, mounted policemen in crimson coats, sent west to do what they could to bring law and order to the land.

The Wild Ride is history related in a bold way: as storytelling, as theatre, as art and exhibition, brought to life by an inspired collection of photos, artifacts, and ephemera.

Charles Wilkins is the award-winning author of several books of non-fiction, including Paddle to the Amazon, with Don Starkell, In the Land of Long Fingernails, and The Circus at the Edge of the Earth. He divides his time between Thunder Bay and Muskoka, Ontario.
