Overview"Published originally in 1872, this is a diary, kept by Archibald McDonald, of an 1828 canoe voyage made by Sir George Simpson, the Governor of the Hudson's Bay Company. They traveled to the Pacific from Hudson's Bay through the Peace River Pass, paddling through its ""lacrustine watercourse, with all the ease of a paddle on a quiet lake."" The journal was published as a marketing piece to entice adventurous and ambitious Canadians, already accustomed to the climate, to move into the fertile and resource-rich areas of Western Canada."
