Across The Sub-Artics Of Canada: A Journey Of 3,200 Miles By Canoe And Snowshoe Through The Barren Lands is a travelogue written by James Williams Tyrrell. The book chronicles his journey through the sub-arctic regions of Canada, covering a distance of 3,200 miles by canoe and snowshoe. The journey took place in 1893 and 1894 and was undertaken for the purpose of mapping the region and studying its geography, geology, and natural history.The book is divided into two parts. The first part covers the journey by canoe, which took Tyrrell and his team through the Athabasca River, the Slave River, and the Mackenzie River. The second part covers the journey by snowshoe, which took them through the Barren Lands, a vast region of tundra and rock that is largely uninhabited.Throughout the book, Tyrrell describes the challenges he and his team faced, including harsh weather, difficult terrain, and encounters with wildlife. He also provides detailed descriptions of the landscape and the natural history of the region, including the flora and fauna that they encountered.Overall, Across The Sub-Artics Of Canada is a fascinating account of a journey through one of the most remote and inhospitable regions of Canada. It provides a valuable historical record of the region and its people, as well as insights into the challenges and rewards of exploration in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
