Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Net in the Bay, 1854: Or Journal of a Visit to Moose and Albany
IT might, at first sight, appear that the narrative of a journey of two thousand four hundred miles, involving an absence from home of nearly sixteen weeks, through a country but rarely visited, must necessarily contain much of stirring incident. To those, however, who know anything of the solitariness of this wide territory, the difficulty will rather appear to be to vary the mono tony of the detail of each passing day. Yet the scenes presented to the eye, the general method of travelling, and especially the first dawn of religious life, are so different from anything in other lands, that few days were altogether barren of some occurrences, tri?ing, perhaps, in themselves, but possessing interest to many at a distance, and especially to those kind Christian friends who trace with pleasure the advancement of the Redeemer's kingdom in Rupert's Land.
