The Autobiographical Story of the Opening of the Far North
There was a time not so very long ago when the Hudson’s Bay Company ruled the north. A time of silky furs, Indian skirmishes, canoes, “jawbone”, dog sleds, traps, and sourdoughs. Adventure came easy in this silent land of the far north. Henry John Moberly surely had plenty of it. Nearly 50 years he spent among the native and white trappers as a fur trader, trapper, hunter, and explorer. Moberly opened many of HBC’s most remote Trading Posts.
The struggles of the north, the unbearable cold, the humor of the frontiersmen, the dangers of the trail and river, and the peace and war times of the natives. This book contains a lifetime of adventure and insights of the true north.
Moberly’s When Fur was King is the autobiography of an exceptional man in an exceptional time in history. When hunters and trappers opened the north and blazed the trails for later exploration by prospectors and explorers.
Containing an introduction by William Bleasdell Cameron, (the author of Blood Red the Sun, the war trail of big bear, etc)
