Publisher's Synopsis

""A Thousand Miles From A Post Office: Or Twenty Years Life And Travel In The Hudson�������s Bay Regions"" is a memoir written by Joseph Lofthouse in 1922. The book chronicles Lofthouse's experiences living and traveling in the Hudson's Bay region of Canada for twenty years. He describes the harsh living conditions, the challenges of hunting and trapping, and the interactions he had with the indigenous people of the area. Lofthouse also provides insight into the workings of the Hudson's Bay Company, the dominant trading company in the region at the time. The book is a fascinating account of life in a remote and isolated part of Canada during the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
