Black Beaver: The Trapper: From The Amazon to the McKenzie River

This special re-print edition of General Edward Lewis' book "Black Beaver: The Trapper" is the memoir of a 19th Century frontiersman, trapper, mine and adventure-seeker, Edward Lewis. Written in 1911, "Black Beaver: The Trapper" tells the exploits of the author from his youngest years trapping as a hobby in Michigan, and finally his foray into the American Wilderness as a young man as a roving trapper trying to make his way in the world. His exploits eventually lead him into adventure into the Canadian North, to Alaska, back into the American Rockies and eventually into the furthest unknown reaches of the Arctic in search of fur. A splendid memoir that provides insights into the author's assorted tricks of the trapping trade. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
