Always a best-seller!

Exploring the Fur Trade Routes
of North America
By Barbara Huck et al.     
Third Edition: 2006

Following the continent's waterways, the fur trade opened North America. Highways and
airways have replaced the ancient river routes, but this fascinating history lives on. Heartland's remarkable guide takes you from Quebec to Oregon, featuring stunning photography, dozens of maps and full driving directions to more than 130 sites. Great for both 'take to the road' types and for armchair travellers, this expertly written and researched guide has won accolades from scholars and travellers alike.

WINNER: Best Illustrated Book of the Year award,
Manitoba Book Awards 2000
