In the mid-1920s Raymond M. Patterson
left a comfortable position with the Bank of England for a life in with wilds
of Canada. Here, he hunted, trapped, fished and prospected his way along the
rivers he would later write about. This spellbinding book, his most famous account, chronicles his two journeys down the treacherous Nahanni River between the Yukon and the Mackenzie River, spurred on by his irrepressible lust for adventure and his quest for gold. The New Yorker called this a truly enchanting book. Written by R.M. Patterson. Published by Boston Mills Press, 1989. |
