In the summer of 1911, two young adventurers named Hulbert Footner and Auville Eager undertook a precarious and sometimes dangerous excursion in a collapsible canvas canoe from Tete Jaune Cache BC through the Peace River Country and on to the Hay River and its Alexandra Falls. Along the way, the men took over 120 photographs of people and places they encountered which offer rare insight into what living was like in the region at the time, especially in Native communities. Footner recounted his journey in a book called New Rivers of the North, and included some of his photographs. In this book, New Rivers of the North Revisited, some of these and other Footner photos, along with maps, other images, and historical commentary, are combined with excerpts from Footner’s text to offer an even more detailed perspective of northeastern British Columbia and northwestern Alberta at the beginning of the twentieth century.
